RESET VARIABLES

Very often many of the system variables will "mysteriously" change to values that are not what you like. This can be from so many different reasons that we won't even try to list them (or lay blame). This command helps you get back to "normal" by resetting commonly changed system variables back to values set in the APS-CONFIG configuration utility. 

User configurable options: 

• The RESET command stores settings for the following
  • Desired setting for MENUECHO system variable
  • Whether to echo AutoLISP command functions
  • Whether you would like object highlighting turned on
  • Whether to show blips
  • Whether to allow pickfirst object selection
  • Pickbox size
  • Aperture size
  • Whether to mirror text
  • Snap angle
  • Snap base point
  • Running object snap mode
  • PDMODE value
  • Linear units & precision
  • Angular units & precision

See the Reset Cmd section of the APS Configuration Utility. 

Known limitations:

• None reported. If there is something this command will not do that you think it should please let us know.
