Dynamic Input at pointer
Autocad has a setting where the commands entered are displayed on the screen in a box near the cursor - I think they are called tooltips. This is very useful and ergonomic for someone like me who uses text (commands, aliases and small lisp routines) extensively for input, rather than toolbars and ribbons in general.
Trying to find this in Bricscad help led me to this statement: "dynamic input at pointer not supported". Is this because of the version of Bricscad I am using (Pro)? Or does it apply to the entire product range?
Is there a fix for this, or an add-on macro I can use?
Please advise.

Activate dynamic Input in the bottom right corner. If you don't see it try the little arrow.0

hmm - there IS a dynamic input setting and it is ticked - but it doesn't seem to do anything. "dynamic input at pointer not supported" might be true, then.0

The display of command options is controlled by the sys var PROMPTMENU, but it doesn't appear at pointer level, but rather at a fixed position on the screen. Read more about it here: Prompt menus (help.bricsys.com) and here: PROMPTMENU system varriable.0

Assuming this is what we are talking about

Patrick: The last time I used Autocad, it was displaying the Command Line in that pop-up box near the crosshairs. If I typed a command name, it would appear in that box as I typed it.0
