To float the command window
■ Click the move handle (the double bars) on the left edge of the docked
command window and drag the command window away from the docking
region until it has a thick outline. Then drop it in the drawing area of the
AutoCAD LT window.
To make the floating command window transparent
1 In the floating Command window, click the Properties button and select
Transparency.
2 In the Transparency dialog box, move the slider to the left to make the
command window less transparent and to the right to make it more
transparent.
The range is from opaque to transparent. When the Turn Off Transparency
for All Palettes option is selected, the command window cannot be made
transparent.
To dock the command window
■ Click the title bar and drag the command window until it is over the top
or bottom docking region of the AutoCAD LT window. When the command
window becomes the same width as the AutoCAD window, release the
mouse button to dock it.
The docking region is an edge of the AutoCAD application window that
allows you to dock a toolbar, palette, or the command window.
■ Right-click the title bar of the Command window, and select Allow
Docking.
NOTE You can control whether the command window docks by right-clicking
the title bar of the command window and then clicking Allow docking.
To resize the command window when it is docked
1 Position the cursor over the horizontal splitter bar so that the cursor
appears as a double line and arrows.
2 Drag the splitter bar vertically until the command window is the size you
want it to be.
