end out of ddedit after you hit enter once?

[Anonymous]

when i use the acad ddedit command to edit text, after i hit "ok" im still
in the command until i hit enter to end the command
is there a system variable that i can change that will turn the this off on
the ddedit so when i hit the "ok" it end ends the command?

i dont understand what you mean by how am i set up?
im using acad 09

my ddedit stays in the edit command until i hit enter to get out of it
example::

Command: DDEDIT
Select an annotation object or [Undo]: (i edit some text and press "ok")
Select an annotation object or [Undo]: (stay in command until i press enter)

apparently there is a system variable to turn this off and i cant find it via help files
im hoping someone here knows this

put this in your acaddoc.lsp file
(defun c:dd ()(command "ddedit" pause ""))

thanks but that doesnt help with the habit of double clicking the text to edit

[lpseifert]

Try replacing the macro for Double Click Actions - Text to this
^C^C_ddedit;;

didnt think of that, and it works

thanks
