Hi again,
Too observe the status of several settings at a glance you may choose which to display on the Status Bar. Take a minute to play around with the Status Bar and it's settings so that you can adjust to your needs and be aware of the various options.
STATUSBAR command = 1 or 0 (on/off)
Right-click a layout tab to see the option to dock the status bar inline with layout tabs.
Select the "Hamburger Button" at lower right of screen to see which status buttons are displayed. Any status buttons displayed will show blue if on.
Identify position of status bar buttons by checking the on and off to see their position on the bar. This will lead you to noticing status for the OSNAP icon and 3DOSNAP icon (I expect that you would have no use for 3DOSNAP so ensure that it is not displayed and it is off). All of these settings can be adjusted by typing the commands as well but my advice is to recognize things at a glance, without sacrificing too much screen space, when possible.
Identify settings for OSNAP and 3DOSNAP. Make sure that you have a minimum number of OSNAP choices checked. Choices depend upon your drawing habits but I typically recommend Endpoint, Intersection, Midpoint, Center, Quadrant, and Extension.
Hope this helps,
Blaine
