Wipeout Frame settings

[Anonymous]

I use wipeouts often in my drawings and was wondering if there is a setting to "lock" your choice of frame setting. My choice doesn't save with the drawing and when it is opened again I have to remember to turn the setting back to display but not plot. Is there a way to "lock" this setting?

Hi and Welcome to AutoCAD Forum,

you may have some outsource plug-in or lisp that when loaded automatically change this setting . check that and see if there is any .

Since Help claims  it's saved in each drawing, I agree with @imadHabash that something that runs automatically must be changing it.  If you have an acaddoc.lsp file, it could be in there, in which case you should be able to remove it, or if it's not there, you could put the setting you want in there:

(setvar 'wipeoutframe 2)

[How reliable that is might depend on what's changing it -- you'd have to investigate the order in which automatically-run things happen.]

It could also be inside something that is run by  acaddoc.lsp [and not apparent in the file itself], or by something in the APPLOAD Startup Suite, or in a .mnl file, or an acad.lsp file.  If it's in the latter [and you can't just remove it for some reason], check the acadlspasdoc System Variable, which controls whether that file is run only on startup or in every drawing.
