It's AutoCAD Lt 2015. I have been following the tutorial video we purchased
for the program called "Infinite Skills".
All has been going well until this afternoon. Anyway, I'm at my wits end,
and have made several changes to my work space, and have yet to figure out
the problem? I can't even do the "chapter test at the end of chapter 4"
??????? It's pretty simple. Or not !? LOL ! Also, I have lost the input
boxes next to my cross hairs, or cursor? I just cannot figure this out ?????
I'm at a lose ?????? Please send me what you can on this matter. I think it
would be better for me to reset all of the settings for my work space to
the original settings when it was purchased?
Thanks in advance for your time on this matter. I have been using "Corel
Draw" for 11 years. It's a graphics art program.

Life so sweet a week ago !!!!!!!!!!!!!😁
Thanks again !

Best Regards,

Paul

Hi Paul,

 

Thanks for the update. I will move your message to the AutoCAD LT forum as that's the best place to post AutoCAD LT questions.  But before I do that, I'll answer your question.  I actually wrote a batch file years ago when I was working on the AutoCAD Team that will re set all your settings back to the out of the box settings.  We ended up rolling that into a feature for AutoCAD and LT.   You can find it under Autodesk/AutoCAD LT 2015 and it's called "Reset Settings to Default" Here is a screen shot that shows where it's located.

Hope this helps get you back up to orginal settings in AutoCAD LT.  And good luck with the tutorials.  I'll move this to the AutoCAD LT forum now. Also here is the direct link to the AutoCAD LT forum.

Thanks

I forgot to add, I started using AutoCAD with version 2.6 and CorelDRAW with version 1. Great software and once you get up to speed, you will love it. Also be sure to check out the AUGI(Autodesk User Group International) there are some great tutorials there as well.
