Disappearing commands in command line after ending autocad

Hey guys,

 

I just started using Autodesk AutoCAD 2022. I noticed something .. whenever I do drawings, the commands used and maybe limits band units set would be in the command line below right? But after saving the drawing and ending autocad, it seems those commands and units for the drawings disappear as even when I open the drawing again and click on the command line to find those dimensions and commands, they are nowhere to be found . Can this be remedied?

So you don't really mean after saving as in the Topic heading, but after closing the drawing.  No, you can't get at the command history again after that.

So even after I save the drawing normally, I can’t get the commands again?

If you only SAVE [not SAVEAS], but do not CLOSE, can you not see the command history?

Ending AutoCAD flushes away the commandline history. But you can save the commandline history as a text file outside of the program for review using BEFORE you ever start
LOGFILENAME
LOGFILEON
LOGFILEPATH

Look up those three commands in HELP.
