Saveas question

I just updated to the latest v 14 (64 bit).  What happened to the saveas dialog box? now it generates a list of version numbers and it only allows me to enter the new file name thru the command line.  Hopefully this is a system variable, this is a real pain.

    Hi John,

    Vaidas answer is correct in that FILEDIA controls whether a dialogue is shown when saving/opening files. However I've had some situations where FILEDIA is On, and I'm still shown the command line. In these cases closing down and re-starting BricsCAD seems to correct the issue.

    As an aside, if you are running with FILEDIA = 0, then you can force a file dialogue to open by typing ~, then pressing enter.
