AutoCAD 2010/2011/2012 DWG Format

[#1]

I would like to hear from an Autodesk person. Surely no one really thought it was a good idea to completely eliminate the Array Dialogue box, what a giant step backwards.....

Perhaps it has been redesigned and is accessible through another command, perhaps an additional option has been added and we're haven't figured it out yet.

Oh, to have about 10 hours to sit down and read before jumping in to a new release.....

I have written my own ClassicArray and will be posting a Beta of it on my blog shortly.

Edit: oops, I see RK has already mentioned that, never mind.

ClassicArray Beta is now available:

Steve, thank you so, so much. I much prefer the 'old' style box. I will look out for the final version

[#5]

Steve, just a quick question ? Is there any way for the box to remember the previous entries. I do a lot of repeat arraying with minor offset changes. It would great if this is possible !!

[#6]

There's no way currently to save settings, although I may be able to add that feature if the demand is there. It is possible to create custom commands that have predetermined settings, though. Give me an example of the sort of settings you would commonly use and I'll show you how it's done.

For those who like the legacy control pick method of selecting items on top of each other (like i do) remember to change legacyctrlpick variable to 0 or the control pick method of editing an item in an associative array will not work.

Hi Steve, I think there might be a small bug. If doing a rectangular array & I have a count of 18 in column, I have to put the value in the row offset for it to work. I've attached a sceenshot of your classic array with 2012 & the old one in 2011

Thanks! I think I've fixed that and it now remembers its settings:
