I am using ADT 2004 and have somehow accidently change a system variable to not show an object whilst i am moving it.

E.g. If I move a rectangle it disapears as I am moving it instead of becoming like an overlay and I cannot precisly place objects.

E.g. 2 (incase im not making sense!) if you have a square box in one corner and want to move it to the other. Normally I select the box to move it and a 'ghost' or 'overlay' of the box moves with my mouse so I can see it as I am moving it and I can see when it is position.

Now when selecting the box, I just have my cursor and cannot see where the box outline would end up.

Please help if possible as it is really making life difficult.

Thanks

In ACAD 2006 the command "dragmode" will cycle this on or off, ADT might be the same........Amanda....

Thats it!!! Thank you so much!

I had to set the dragmode variable to auto. On/Off didnt work but auto does the trick.

Thanks again.
