Dear all,

 

I'm a new guy to use Autocad.

I found that I'm missing  a "Attach" Dialog box, How come?

 

I checked "FILEDIA", is <1>.

 

Please help.

Thank you and waiting for all kindly reply.

Hi,

 

"ATTACH" dialog of what command?

What do you like to "attach", a DWG PDF JPG DWF XLS - what is it?

 

for example, command ATTACH

type in

ATTACH<Enter>

 

If you can't see a dialog to choose fileextenstion and file, it is offscreen and you can work on after [ESC] only.

Is that the case?

 

Start command ATTACH

press [ALT]+[SPACE]

hit [M]

hit one of the arrow-keys (not from the numpad)

and move your mouse

the dialog should follow your cursor

Hi and Welcome to AutoCAD Forum,

If your problem still exists with this command and any other ones ... I suggest to reset  AutoCAD for default settings. >> Click <<

CMDDIA variable set to 1 as well? @autocad_035NVMP 

 

Or does the program appear to be frozen when this pop-up is missing?

By Attach do you mean the External Reference Manager or possibly Insert. The Attach command on the command line does not open any Dialog box. It opens a browser to select a file.

AutoCAD-specific troubleshooting 

  • Be sure that the FILEDIA and CMDDIA variables are each set to a value of 1. Type them in on the command line (separately) to check their current value, and set to 1, if necessary.
  • Reset AutoCAD to defaults: How to reset AutoCAD to defaults.
  • If this does not resolve the issue, fully uninstall and reinstall the affected Autodesk product: Clean uninstall of AutoCAD or verticals
