Why does my toolbar flyout not work?


A flyout might not work for a few different reasons. There might not be any
commands currently assigned to the toolbar that it is referencing or a control
is part of the toolbar that is being referenced for the toolbar flyout. Launch
the CUI Editor and verify that there are commands on the toolbar that is being
referenced and if there are, make sure there are no controls on the toolbar
such as the Layer list control.


Why do I get an AutoCAD LT message box when I try to use a toolbar flyout?


The AutoCAD LT message box is displayed because the toolbar that is being
referenced for the toolbar flyout is not found. AutoCAD LT can’t find the
toolbar because it no longer exists, is not currently loaded because the partial
CUIx file it is in is not loaded, or the alias for the toolbar has been changed.


Launch the CUI Editor and select the flyout on the toolbar that currently is
not working properly. In the Properties pane look at the Source Toolbar
property. Use the Find option to look for a toolbar element with an alias that
matches the text string in the Source Toolbar property of the flyout that does
not work. If one is not located, remove the flyout from the toolbar and drag
the toolbar that you want to reference as a flyout on the toolbar. Close the
CUI Editor. The flyout should now work correctly once again.


Double Click Actions


When I double-click an object nothing happens. Why is this happening?


There are a few different reasons why when double-clicking on an object in
the drawing nothing happens. The first and most common problem is with
the system variable PICKFIRST is set to 0. PICKFIRST must be set to a value of
1 in order for double-click editing to work. The next possible solution is that
double-click editing has been disabled. Double-click editing is controlled by
the system variable DBLCLKEDIT. If it is set to 0 it is currently turned off.
DBLCLKEDIT should be set to 1.


Workspaces


Why do my changes not appear after I click Apply?


This happens because the workspace that you made changes to is not the
current workspace. To resolve this problem, you need to set the workspace
current and then when changes are applied they will appear. See To set a
workspace current from the CUI Editor on page 289 for more information.
