Startup Dialogue Box

[martyk]

Could someone explain to me why the startup dialog box wouldn't show up even after Tools->Options->System->Show Traditional Startup Dialog is chosen? Is a puzzlement! Thanks!

Check to make sure your filedia variable is set to 1

Type: Integer
Saved in: Registry
Initial Value: 0
Controls whether the Create New Drawing dialog box is displayed when starting a new drawing with the NEW and QNEW commands. Also controls whether the Startup dialog box is displayed when the application is started.



If the FILEDIA system variable is set to 0, no dialog boxes are displayed.


0 Displays the Select Template dialog box, or uses a default drawing template file set in the Options dialog box, on the Files tab.

1 Displays the Startup and the Create New Drawing dialog boxes.
