Hi, the lookfrom or navycube can be removed by selecting "dismiss" on the icon itself. But is it possible to configure it so that it doesn't appear in any viewport, or to remove it from viewports that are already in the drawing?

Thak You

    Hi,

    In BricsCAD this is controlled by the system variable NAVCUBEDISPLAY.

    You can find it easily via Settings (type SETTINGS and search for "navcube" or "lookfrom").

    BricsCAD also clearly indicates that this variable is saved in the DWG (shown in the lower-left corner of the Settings panel).

    To disable the NavCube / LookFrom:

    NAVCUBEDISPLAY = 0

    Because it is stored per drawing, this only affects the current DWG.

    If you want to disable it by default for all drawings, you can use a small Lisp file. For example, create a file MySettings.lsp with:

    (setvar "NAVCUBEDISPLAY" 0)

    Load it via command APPLOAD, or include it in your startup routine (e.g. on_doc_load.lsp), so it runs automatically when a drawing is opened.

    You can of course extend this approach with additional settings over time.
