Accessing lisp from tool palette repeats last command

[brettS6K2S]

I'm using C3D 2022 1.2, ACAD 2022 1.1, Map 3D 2022 0.1

I've recently noticed that when loading a custom lisp file from a custom tool palette, my last command is repeated.

It's requiring me to press the ESC key in order to bypass this.

Note that I have the typical ^C^C at the beginning of the command string, which should already take care of this.

For example:

There is a lisp routine that we have in a tool palette for converting mtext to MLeader

I've drawn a circle, then notice I have some mtext that would like to be a MLeader instead.

I should be able to select my lisp in the tool palette and proceed as normally prompted to select mtext.

Instead, when I first select the lisp in the tool palette, I get my last command instead...in this example, the circle command is initiated rather than the lisp. 

When I manually press ESC key before initiating the lisp from the tool palette, everything works as it should. No repeat of last command.

It's been years since I've messed with tool palettes and macros, but off the top of my empty head maybe try a few different things...

a)  Try dropping the two ^C^Cs

b)  Try adding a 3rd ^C

c)  Try adding the harmless REDRAW command before the call to your program.

OR

Might there be something in your code that is invoking the previous command?

Is there a semicolon right after the ^C^Cs?  Or a space?

Thank you John!

I missed that there was a space right after the ^C^C's. I removed the space and success.

Sometimes the littlest thing can cause a big disruption.
