With this code:
(setq tpm (if (getkword (strcat "\nSetting to Change : ")) "Continue"))
I'm getting this in my commmand line:
**My main problem is that the line for "Setting to Change..." is broken into 2 lines, is there a way to force this onto one line? I have plenty of room in my command line yet, so I don't believe its a margins thing. Anybody got any ideas??? ** -Disregard this question... when the user is prompted it shows up on one line, then changes...
The other, alot more minor thing, is that I would like to underline the "Current Settings" line of text in the command line. Is this possible? Nevermind found it.... needed "( (eq tpm "Cont")", not ( (eq tmp "Cont")"
Can someone please tell me why my loop won't end???

I'm guessing its going to be a little detail, but I can't find it. LoL
Lee, you were talking about being immature...
(princ (strcat "\nFace Type: " fat))(princ (strcat "\nArray Type: " art))
lol, very nice I keep coming up with more questions.... but how would I change a prompt to accept a mouse click in addition to a text input.
And then if it was a mouse click, how would use the coordinates of that point and apply it to a variable?
Not sure if this makes 100% sense, so for an example look at the autocad arc command, after you initiate the are command you have an option you can activate by hitting the "c" key, or you can click and it accepts that as the first point of the arc. *Hint* Fully read about initget in the Developer Help I did, and I understand that if you use 128 as the bit-code for the initget function that it will allow you to inputer keyboard entries into a getpoint function, but I don't see how that combines the getkword to make sure the user is only entering either the options you give them, or a point.
Sorry if I'm being thick, I'm just not very good at figuring this kind of stuff out fromt the help files. How about this part
