    Default DDEDIT

    Hi All,
    I am new to the AutoCad Map 3D 2013. I still use Icons and dialog boxes, old habits. I have been using autocad since 1995, many versions. I have not had training in cad since 2003. Using Windows 7, 64 bit version. Enough about the relevant background. I have been trying to find the Dialog box for Text DDEDIT. Does this exist any more? yes, I have filedia set to "0". Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    The ddedit is now an in-place edit, it highlights the text and allows you to edit in place with out the dialog box. You can also double click on the text and it allows you to edit.

    It doesn't matter, sir.
    As the command name sounds, FILEDIA involves only the I/O of files, e.g. open and save.
    To handle the GUI behaviour, the right command would be CMDDIA.

    I don't know of any vanilla AutoCAD dialog that still honor CMDDIA, althought I know several MAP dialogs still do.
