how to remember my prompt options in session, and how to print to prompt (without any options)

[5thSth]

hi,

I'm back after a long time trying to customize my cad...

can someone tell me how to save my prompt options, so when I reuse the command the last choice is used as the promptoptions.DefaultValue?

also, how can we print simple lines of text (status) in the prompt (sort of like a debugger) ?

You can use fields (global variables) in the class containing the command method. If the command method is static the static fields are accessible from all documents in the session, if the command method is not static (instance method) the non static fields are 'per document' (see this topic and the following).

Simply use the Editor.WriteMessage() method.
