command line detailed step by step

[rgold76]

i toggled my command line so it would be my main prompt so i could copy paste this info into a script.  i forgot to write this down and now i can't remember how to toggle it back.  any help would be greatly appreciated.

F2

Ctrl 9

not sure what you are after?

[rgold76]

that just turns the command line on and off.  i need the setting to toggle detailed command line on/off.  detailed like when you do a -plot that steps you through a command step by step.

I'm not quite sure I understand what you're asking either, if the F2 key isn't the answer, but could it be the setting of the CMDECHO System Variable?

[rgold76]

its not those.  i'll try and give you and example

when i click express pulldown and select

-blocks

-replace blocks with another block

i don't get the window that pops up to select the block to replace.

i only get the command line with

Select the block to be replaced or[? = (select object)]:

the setting i'm looking for will toggle this and the selection boxes will open

Change CMDDIA = 1 and while you're at it, make sure FILEDIA = 1
