    Default Rectangle command returns - unknown command

    Has anyone had there commands stop working if picking from the tool bar.???
    In the "Shapes" tool palette I can draw a line and Circle, However the rectangle
    command stops working and I get "unknown command".
    I re-load the default imperial profile and then it works again.???
    Why would only certain commands stop working.???
    Thanks...

    Standard AutoCAD "Draw" toolbar or a custom toolbar or tool palette? If it's a custom or enterprise CUI that is causing problems my guess would be an old ".lsp" routine running that doesn't have an error handler built-in. I've seen cases where users have canceled out of old commands written years ago that cause this problem.

    What version of acad?
    Prior to A2005 (possibly A2006, I forget which) Rectangle was an external command loaded from an arx file.

    Hi Richard

    Please note I have *moved* this thread from the CAD Mgmt. General forum to this one, as I feel this particular forum is a more appropriate place for such a topic.

    Thanks, Mike

    Thanks Mike,
    I am using ADT-05'
    I re-set the default profile and that seemed to work.
    I take a look at the ARX setting.
