Saving changes to system variables

[Bogbadbob658]

Hi

Is it possible to save changes made to system variables?
I prefer to have 'ucsfollow' set to '1' but at the moment every time I open a drawing I have to reset it as it defaults back to '0'. I thought in 2005 it remember the last settings when you exited a drawing but in 2008 it doesn't appear to.

Many thanks

Ucsfollow is saved in the drawing file, so unless you have a third party or startup application that changes it upon startup it should remain as you saved the drawing. If this is happening just when creating a new drawing, then change the variable in the template. Or... you could put this line in your acaddoc.lsp file.
(setvar "ucsfollow" 1)

You may have something, such as a LISP, resetting it. You could try this...

add the following line of code to your acaddoc.lsp file....... (setvar "UCSFOLLOW" 1)

Thanks. I created a one line lisp file and put it in the startup suite and it seems to work fine.
