Title: acad2015 possible bug switching tabs
Post by: ZNETQ on August 06, 2014, 07:50:04 AM
bonjour, I'm trying to migrate from acad2012 to acad2015

Can someone with AutoCAD 2015 evaluates if the following is a reproducible bug ?
Switching between drawings via Ctrl+Tab is not working in this situation:
 
. Open AutoCAD 2015, Open a new drawing, Drawing1, Open a new drawing, Drawing2
. In Drawing2, draw a rectangle and select it
. type "_copybase" "0,0,0"
. immediately after, press Ctrl+Tab to switch to Drawing1

--> nothing happens unless you move the mouse and re-Ctrl+Tab

That is because the commandline is active. If you click once on the commandline and you see the blinking cursor, it also is not possible to switch drawings. Until the drawing area is active again, then you can switch.

Thanks!

The commandline was indeed stealing the focus. It can be active, the *problem* occurs when DYNMODE = 0, which was my setting

I set DYNMODE higher and everything works as expected
Problem solved!
