2015LT New Tab

[DonovanPorter]

Good morning all

 

i'm not what caused this but i get a blank tab , when i select new tab...

 

i've tried changing the variables but none return it to having all the tabs displayed

[DonovanPorter]

opposed to this

[ReMark]

Did you try shutting down AutoCAD then restarting it?

 

What variables were you mucking around with? Were you making changes via the Options dialog box prior to this situation occurring?

[Dana W]

This may not be it, but check to make sure both NEWTABMODE, and FILEDIA are both set to .

[DonovanPorter]

Good Morning Guys

 

i have cycle though the options of NEWTABMODE -1,2,3.

FILEDIA is currently set at 1

 

i have tried shutting down and restarting , no difference.

i cant recall making any changes in the options dialog other than, crosshair, fade control and such.

I guess that the menu is unloaded or being unloaded by a user with the toolbars as well , so try to reinstall the program from the Control Panel > Select AutoCAD 2015 then Uninstall/Change then you should receive a message to Uninstall or Remove .. etc then chose Reinstall .

[DonovanPorter]

from the start menu i have the following > Autodesk>AutoCAD 2015 LT>Reset Setting To default.

[DonovanPorter]

i have reset AutoCAD to defaults, still have the same reault

[ReMark]

Have you tried a REPAIR of this installation?

[DonovanPorter]

no i have not tried a repair.

 

how do i go about doing a repair ?

[ReMark]

It is accessed through the Windows Control Panel > Programs and Features.

 

Note: A REPAIR is not the same as an uninstall/reinstall.

 

When you say you tried to reset AutoCAD's default settings did you in fact reset your Profile via the Options dialog box?

[DonovanPorter]

i used the "reset settings to default" option through windows start menu.

 

i will try the repair, and post my findings.

 

thank you ReMark

[DonovanPorter]

i done the repair , but no difference.

[ReMark]

Just out of curiosity when did this first occur?

[DonovanPorter]

i have had the programme for about 4 months of which i think it was almost a week that i had the new tab working correctly.

i think it might have been a setting that is switched off, because of the curiosity of the new version. but then again i could be wrong.

[ReMark]

Try resetting your Profile via Options > Profiles tab > Reset.

[DonovanPorter]

AutoCAD LT does not have (support) profiles.

[ReMark]

Sorry...I should have remembered.

 

I tried to duplicate your situation on my computer but couldn't. Could you swing by and show me what you did? I like learning new and esoteric things.

[DonovanPorter]

no worries.

quite the distance between us couple thousand kilometers. for the life of me i wish i knew what i had done.

[ReMark]

You apparently came down with a severe case of clickitis. I had a manager that got it so bad he once had over fifty copies of Windows Explorer open on his desktop.

 

What is the current value of NEWTABMODE?
