How to return the tracking settings to default

My tracking settings seem to have changed and I would like for them to return to normal. I like to use the default angles of 5, 10, 15, 30, 60 and 90.

On that menu click on Tracking Settings or on the Command prompt enter:

+DSETTINGS 1

Then on the Polar Angle Settings Increment angle drop down list select

Now the increment of 5 is checked:

I followed the steps indicated.

The order of the angles has been fixed, but the increments for each angle haven't.

Thanks in advance.

when you enter at the command prompt POLARANG what does the current value show?

Hello @paullimapa , the current value for POLARANG is 5.

I started autocad today and suddently the angles seem to be correct. Why do you ask? What should the value for POLARANG be?

Selecting 5 on the Settings Increment angle in the Dsettings window actually sets POLARANG when AutoCAD is behaving properly
