Revcloud command only lets you select arc size. cannot draw rectangle, polygon, or select object. I suspect a support file is missing.

What does ABOUT command list as your AutoCAD version?
Which REVCLOUD command and options are shown in the commandline when you start it? Expand the commandline to show you 5-10 likes and see what is going on. Post a screenshot of it here if you'd like help deciphering it.

Thanks for the commandline copy from MAP3D2019: the prompt is asking you to start drawing the cloud by clicking on screen and moving your cursor.

You either have a unique command in MAP3D (this is not the forum for that variant), or you have a customziation that is running instead. In plain AutoCAD (the topic of this forum) placing a period ahead of the command name will trigger the core command, that may work for you. Like this
.REVCLOUD

FYI the Map3D forum is over here https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/autocad-map-3d/ct-p/72

Thanks. This gives me new ideas to search for the cause of the problem. I will post on the MAP3D forum, but I don't think this is a MAP3D specific problem.

It was a customization lisp that was the problem. This group has been drafting since the dawn of time and had a lisp to add REVCLOUD before AutoCAD had it preinstalled.
