That's interesting....  At the Command: line, Dimradius won't accept Last as a selection, which would at least explain its not drawing a dimension.  But when doing it manually, it has the common courtesy to talk to you about it, so I don't understand why there's no message.

In some cases it's obvious why a command needs a location-specific selection.  It doesn't seem like that should be necessary for this, but apparently it is.  This works, if you can set it up similarly:

(command "dimradius" '(100 0 0) '(200 100 0))

That shouldn't be hard to do, if your code has established a center and radius, unless there's any chance of its "seeing" something other than the Circle that might happen to go through the same point.  But it shouldn't, if the Circle is the last thing drawn.

Thats odd, earlier i cant even see the post? 

will (ssget "L") work instead?
