Summary
QNEW creates a new drawing from the default drawing template file and
folder path specified in Default Template File Name for QNEW on the File tab
of the Options dialog box.
When a default drawing template file is set to None or is not specified, QNEW
displays the Select Template File dialog box (a
standard file selection dialog
box
).
The behavior of the QNEW command is determined by the STARTUP system
variable.
■ 1: Displays the Create New Drawing dialog box.
■ 0: Displays the Select Template dialog box (a standard file selection dialog
box
) or starts the new drawing using the default drawing template file.
If the system variable, FILEDIA, is set to 0 instead of 1, a
Command prompt
is displayed. If you set FILEDIA to 0, this prompt is displayed regardless of the
Startup setting.
