I must have accidentally changed something on autocad as I have lost the ability to just draw a rectangle by entering my measurements. It is now asking for coordinates. I have read through tips but not found anything to match my issue. I never had to enter "D" to do this, it just was set up to automatically do length etc. I am desperate to get this feature back - please help.
It appears to be different in each file. Previously, I just selected rectangle icon, clicked a point in model space and then two boxes appeared and I entered measurements. Now I just get coordinate option.

Thanks - my F12 key does not appear to do anything which is odd (I use F3 and F8 all the time) - but I typed DYNMODE and <3> and it restored the setting.
Thanks so much for helping. I am assuming there are 1-3 different settings or something...
Yes.
Refer the link below for details regarding DYNMODE Variable.

How do you get the menu bar at the bottom with the "f" commands to show up? I never know whether my functions are on or off. Thanks
Hello,
Right Click on any of the options (eg : dyn) then turn of the use icons menu from it.
