DSD1055 Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 Alright, newbie here but in the trade 20 yrs. Stupid but valid question......here I am working along and clicked something, not sure what and the doalog box applicable to chprop went missing. CMDDIA, FILEDIA, ATTDIA, all set to 1. What am I missing to get this dialog to pop back up please. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobDraw Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 Which box? Properties or quick properties. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rkmcswain Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 Just as an FYI: none of those variables would affect a Properties dialog. If this was Quick Properties, then type in QPMODE and set it to 1 (then when you select an entity the QP dialog will appear) If this was Properties, type in PROPS OR CTRL+1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dana W Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 It may be hiding behind the program window. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dadgad Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 I have never used the CHPROP command, I usually just change properties directly in my QUICK PROPERTIES palette. I just tried CHPROP, but there was no dialog box which opened, just commandline options, so it sounds more like your QUICK PROPERTIES (or Properties) as both Rob & RK have suggested. Might the window which has gone missing look something like the one in the first screenshot? Might it have auto collapsed (which is an option), like the other screenshot where it is appreciably smaller? Did anything else go missing? Try hitting CTRL + 0 .

Dadgad Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 It may be hiding behind the program window. Certainly worth looking, right Dana? Did you get moved in yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSD1055 Posted June 11, 2015 Author Share Posted June 11, 2015 Thanks to all. Dialog showed up this morning albeit a third or less of the normal size but atleast it is there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dadgad Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 It sounds like it is your QUICK PROPERTIES then, can you post a screenshot of it please? It sounds like either it is now set to AUTO COLLAPSE, or the entity type which is being displayed has very few properties specified for it to display. Does it look like my screenshots in post #5? In auto collapse mode, it will expand when you mouse over it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
