Draw PickBox

I've lost PickBox selection function in all dwgs - neither draw box by two points nor by drag (PICKDRAG). Select by click on the entity still works fine.
Any ideas?

    That sounds like you mean you can't draw a Window or Crossing, something that happens when the value of PICKAUTO is 0 or less. Set it to positive 1, 2, or 3.

    The Pickbox is the little white or black square at the cursor, centered on the crosshairs. You can't draw it -- you can only control its size by the PICKBOX variable.

    Thank you - I didn't notice that PICKAUTO would expand in Settings, thought the number there was just the sum of the settings that follow.

    You were right! It's the sum of two of them, anyway, multiplied by -1 if the first one is selected. But, as with all variables, you can also just type the variable name on the command line and set it that way.

    Except on the Command line you have to guess what 0, 1, 2, off, on etc mean!
