AutoCAD 2013 finds ?

(1/4) > >>

KewlToyZ:
Just reading through 2013 SYSVDLG looking at a few items:

(command "INTELLIGENTUPDATE" 0)
;   Controls the graphics refresh rate.
;   The default value is 20 frames per second.
;   If you encounter problems related to graphics generation or timing, turn off the variable by setting it to 0.
;   INTELLIGENTUPDATE works by suppressing the graphics update until the timer expires. Subsequent updates reset the timer.
;   The performance improvement significantly affects updates for scripts and AutoLISP graphics.
;   Those using regular AutoCAD commands will not see a noticeable difference in performance.

(command "NOMUTT" 0)
;   Suppresses the message display (muttering) when it wouldn't normally be suppressed.
;    Displaying messages is the normal mode, but message display is suppressed during scripts, AutoLISP routines, and so on.
;   0   Resumes normal muttering behavior
;   1   Suppresses muttering indefinitely

Anyone tampered with these yet and the command line pausing until routines complete we got in 2012 issues?

KewlToyZ:
Hmmm, I never saw this before so I imagine it is limited to 2013 file formats:

"PROJECTNAME"  is a string we can actually store a project name in the drawing itself?

Assigns a project name to the current drawing.

Used when an xref, image, or DWF underlay file is not found in its original path. The project name points to a section in the registry that can contain one or more search paths for each project name defined. Project names and their search directories are created from the Files tab of the Options dialog box.

Project names make it easier for users to manage xrefs, images, and DWF underlay when drawings are exchanged between customers, or if users have different drive mappings to the same location on a server.

Would be interesting if it could affect Excel table linking.....

--- Quote ---PROPOBJLIMIT

Limits the number of objects that can be changed at one time with the Properties and Quick Properties palettes.
The valid range is 0 - 32767. If the limit is exceeded, the property fields in the palettes will be grayed out.
Note: A similar limit on ribbon property controls and ribbon contextual tabs is stored independently by the RIBBONCONTEXTSELLIM system variable.

May be good may be bad, going to have to see if I can find some older whale files to play with this :ugly:

Jeff_M:
NOMUTT, INTELLIGENTUPDATE & PROJNAME have been around a long time...the first for as long as I can recall, the latter two were in 2010 & possibly earlier.

KewlToyZ:
Thanks Jeff, I never noticed them.
I'm just going through trying to find what changes the look and function of the Command line format in the new system.
