RECTANGLE COMMAND

"I don't know what the problem is with my rectangle command. Is it a problem, or just a setting that I'm not aware of?

The rectangle command shows a broken line instead of a rectangle, and after inputting the dimensions, there's a yellow rectangle beside the one I created."

Questions

1. Does this occur in a new dwg?

2. Do you have latest updates installed on your 2022?

3. Does the problem occur if you start AutoCAD in safemode?

4. Enter GraphicsConfig command, do a screenshot and share that here

Are you just wondering about the preview that eventually goes away?
Or the slow way your 2022 is reacting to everything?

Did your restart your PC yet?

Have you installed the 2022.1.5 Update yet? ABOUT command in your AutoCAD will confirm what you have installed. If not, get it from your Autodesk Account Page here https://manage.autodesk.com/cep/#products-services/updates
Restart your PC afterwards please.

If that did not help... start GRAPHICSCONFIG command and change the 2D Display Settings pulldown from "advanced mode" to one of the other choices.
