Select Page Setup From File Dialog Box opens on startup.

For some reason, every time I start a new drawing, the "Select Page Setup From File" dialog box opens with the new drawing. This just started happening so I don't know what I did. How can I turn this off?

Can you share a screenshot of your entire program window with that pop-up in it please?

This is what opens as soon as the new drawing opens:

So you start C3D (not the topic of this forum), your desired file then opens when you double-click it in Windows' File manager, but another blank tab opens with that pop-up in it? Is that the correct sequence of events?

So when I open the Autocad program, or click the "+" to start a new drawing, the pop up box opens immediately with the new drawing as it opens. Could it be a setting in the template file that somehow got changed?

So the pop-up is from PAGESETUPIN command: I can't seem to get it to pop-up automatically (on its own) here when I click on the + sign (like you, my guess, I set up QNEW with a default template).

 

Dumb question: did you follow this detailed guide to setting up QNEW like that

All of that is set up automatically by our IT. I did a little research into that command and found it in a .lsp routine being run at startup. It doesn't like something it's linked to, so I'll get with IT and see if they can fix it on my end. Thank you for pointing me in the right direction!
