Saving ANNOALLVISIBLE settings

Is it possible to save the ANNOALLVISIBLE setting with a drawing file so the setting will be retained when the drawing is reopened. I assume there must be some option setting that controls this?

Have you tried this?

  1. Set ANNOALLVISIBLE=1 for your drawing’s modelspace.
  2. And set ANNOALLVISIBLE=1 for each viewport you are using. 

Save the drawing.

Thanks ChicagoLooper.

I have tried your suggestion, except with ANNOALLVISIBLE=0.

When I reopen the file after it has been saved and closed, the paperspace ANNOALLVISIBLE setting automatically changes back to 1. 

The model space ANNOALLVISIBLE remains set to 0. 

It is like there is some setting within the layout that resets to ANNOALLVISIBLE=1.

Have you tried??.......Express Tools Tab=>Tools Panel=>System Variables.

Express Tools=>Tools Panel=>System VariablesExpress Tools=>Tools Panel=>System Variables

 

Then make it look like this.

 

Enter ANNOALLVISIBLE in search box.Enter ANNOALLVISIBLE in search box.

 

After you've changed it to 1, go back to System Vaiables dialog window and verify whether it remains at 1 and hasn't  returned to 0.

I tested changing the system variable setting to 0 (which is what I require).

As shown below, after the file is saved with ANNOALLVISIBLE=0. The value is reset to 1 after it is reopened.

As before, the model space retains the setting it was saved with.

You need to go in and create a acaddoc.lsp, otherwise some variables will always reset. Take a look at this. Should be pretty easy to implement! setvar "Variable" n) is all it is, where variable is the sysvar you need to change and n is the number you want to have it initialize at. Once you have done this save the file in a supportpath and it should automatically load up!
