Selecting items before entering a command

[czurcher]

While working today I noticed that I would select an item, then enter the command and for some reason the command would un-select the item and ask for items to be selected.  For example; moving a line I would select the line, then key in the move command and instead of asking for a base point it would ask for me to select items.  This was not the case twenty minutes ago.

Is there a setting that randomly changed?  How can I get it back to how it was before because this is totally frustrating...!

Thanks!

Hello

YES checking that :

PICKFIRST = 1 AND PICKADD = 1 are very often a question/probleme on many AutoCAD forums ...

Bye, Pat
