Polyline Behaviour changed?

Polyline Behaviour changed?

Anonymous
No aplicable

I am a little puzzled by a change I just noticed. From time to time, I will draw poly lines that consist of a linked series of arcs and lines. To get the feel right, I depend heavily on  undo, in the middle of the process. Up until 2015, if I was drawing an arc and I hit undo, the default behaviour was to go back to the extension of the previous arc or line with a tangent arc and I could continue.  In 2018, the after I hit undo the new arc behaves with some kind of included angle behavious that is essentially worthless. What is the point of this?

Which way do you activate the "undo"? Do you pick the option "Undo" in the command line or do you type an "u" or ...?

Perhaps you can show us a video what you're doing?

Sorry, I wasn't clear. I meant that I knew I was only on 2018 (not 2020)
But I updated the software o.161.0.0 Autocad 2018.1.2, and the behavior continues.

Mystery solved. I use old style polylines (Plinetype=0) since we have some lisp routines that only work on them. Apparently Autocad now handles them differently (didn't used to). Switched plinetype to 2 and the it works fine

So now I have to change everyone's default configuration, and then train everyone to convert the lines that they need to use the routines (or spend a few days rewriting the lisp routines).

Thanks all for all the eager assistance.

It really helped to narrow things down.
