    HI, Sorry to ask dimwit question and I tried to find the answer but....

     

    Isnt there a setting/preference  that has to do with repeatng the previous command without having to hit the command or reentering the command ? I know not all commands have it but I recall some do. Isnt there a setting to control that?

    Thanks!

    You can also press the space bar. You can also use the MULTIPLE command. You can also add a * before your macro for example *^C^CLINE;

    or right-click and select "repeat" listed at the top (especially useful too if you actually launched a menu macro and not just a single command).

     

    or turn on fast right-clicking in OPTIONS and simply "fast right-click" to repeat the last command.

    ...you can even set that mouse to a time-sensitive click, to give more than one possible option of what that right-click does!

    If by some odd chance my nattering was useful -- that's great, glad to help. But if it actually solved your issue, then please mark my solution as accepted :smileyhappy:

    If you only turned off right-clicking, you just removed about a third of the LT program from access by you to get things done.

    A big mistake you will wish you had not later.

     

    Turn on time-sensitive right-click instead as I noted and as noted in the reply above this one.

    No I didint turn off the right clicker.

     

    I went to :

    Tools >options> user preferences>RIght Click Customization> >then under Default Mode I changed  it to     "if no objects are selected , right click means,"       "REPEAT LAST COMMAND" (instead of "short cut menu") 

     

    Havent used it this way much yet but am going to try it.

     

    Thanks again.!
