Repeat Command Problem

jmartt — Sat, 21 Nov 2015 18:32:48 GMT

Maybe this is a vanilla CAD problem, but on the chance it might be C3D related I'd save a bunch of time asking this here instead of in th ACAD forum.

Yesterday, for unknown reasons, although I did install several apps from the exchange...one of which was halotext which is amazing...my Repeat Last Command kinda broke.

For some commands, not all, but including Move, Rotate, Copy and Scale, if I repeat Last Command, either with right-clicking or with space bar, it gives me Select instead of the command. And just Select; like it doesn't proceed with the Move command, for example, after I select something.

I didn't change my right-click customization. I tried this in the "C3D as AutoCAD 2016" program and same behavior.

I'm not entirely convinced that it was due to some app being loaded as I'm not at all sure this started happening yesterday. I hope it hasn't always been like this and I just now found it annoying(?)

Thanks.

Set PICKFIRST to 1.

This didn't solve this problem, but I bet somehow related:

I just discovered that my Pickadd sysvar was set to 2. I believe I usually have this set to 1. Or at least I experienced behavior in the past that setting it to 1 now replicates. Is there a setting that changes a selection action inside of a command to a Select command? Because that's sorta what I'm seeing, I think.

Pickfirst is at 1.

This must be the problem. But I don't know why it is happening. Simple rotate command followed by an attempt to repeat last command.

Command: _rotate
Current positive angle in UCS: ANGDIR=counterclockwise ANGBASE=0.0000

Select objects: 1 found

Select objects:

Specify base point:
Specify rotation angle or [Copy/Reference] <28.9865>:
Command: _select

Select objects: !previousSelection
<Selection set: affa>
1 found

Select objects:

Command: *Cancel*

;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;This is where I pressed space bar for repeat last command

Command: SELECT

Select objects: *Cancel*

Well folks, it was definitely this diLeader app:

file:///C:/Users/sea/AppData/Roaming/Autodesk/ApplicationPlugins/DuctiSoft_DiLeader.bundle/Contents/help.htm#inunininfo

It never really installed so as to populate my Add-ins ribbon although it showed-up in my Exchange App Manager. But the Uninstall text was grayed-out. I had to uninstall it using Windows.

After I uninstalled, the next drawing I started behaved normally as far as the Repeat Last Command was concerned.

Hope this helps someone.
