    Question Printing a list of System Variables and their current settings

    i know this would be lengthly, but is there any way to print out the "_.sysvdlg" dialogue. in other words, print out the name and description of all the system variables in a simple way?
    TIA, Tim Duzan

    There are lists of all the system variables out there - check the similar threads links at the bottom of the page.

    To get the settings, you could type sysvar and have all sysvars listed; you could then copy and paste that list to a text document and print that?

    Not very easy, but maybe?

    You already have it on your pc. In the acad\Support folder, there is a lisp file called acadinfo.lsp. It contains some utilities. One is called vars2scr. I ouputs all system variables to a text file (*.scr) that you can run as a script to reset your system. Thus is lists all the current settings.
