Can someone please remind me of the command for hatch which brings up the dialogue box - I hate the new one where it's all command entry based. Thanks

Hi,

look to sysvar HPDLGMODE (details >>>here<<<)

And as a help how you can find sysvars like that (you already know that there is one) you could use the command setvar:

SETVAR<ENTER>

?<ENTER>

*DLG*<ENTER>

So if you search for something with "dialog" ==> use *DLG* or *DIA*

if you search something for plot ==> try *PLOT* or *PLT*

....you'll get a list of (a few) variables containig the searchchars and then look into the help for details.
