    Drafting Tooltip turn off

    I am using Autocad 2007 and when I work under any command, there are three little windows following next to cursor. I think they are called Drafting tooltip. I went into option window, but I couldn't find any way that I can turn all off. They bother me a little bit. Is there a way that I can turn them off?
    Thank you.

    It's called Dynamic Input.

    Let me guess: Here's the new version, use it! No training, right?

    Now for the answer to your question.

    Click on the DYN button in the status bar at the bottom of your screen to turn off/on all Dynamic Input functions.

    This will turn off the use of the cursor based input and revert you to the old fashioned way of entering everything at the command line.

    You could also limit the use of Dynamic Input by using the settings 0, 1, 2 or 3 in the DYNMODE system variable (also available as check boxes in the Dynamic Input Tab of the OSnap Settings Dialog.
