Can you toggle this so it doesn't even ask at all and just defaults to off?
In case there's any confusion about what I'm talking about, it's how when you create an array in Autocad version 2012 and 2013, afterwards the objects are all (by default) associative. Like a dynamic block.

I want to return this to way it was in older versions of ACAD.

For example, do you ever use the PEDIT command on a bunch of lines with the purpose of joining them together into a single polyline?

Ever notice how PEDIT always asks "Would you like to convert blah blah to polylines?"

I don't know about you, but I always say "yes" and got tired of repeating that process.

Turns out that you can just type in PEDITACCEPT and set it to 1. Now PEDIT will always convert lines into PLINES without needing to ask first.

This is kind of what I want to do with the Array command. I want it to always make my arrays NON ASSOCIATIVE without asking me every single time.

Thank you.

The varriable for the old array command is ARRAYCLASSIC. I hope this helps.

Thank you in turn for posting the PEDITACCEPT, I did not know that one! It helps greatly :mrgreen:
