FILEDIA
Type: integer · Stored in: session · Initial value: 1
How commands ask for a file (GEOIMAGE, XREF, PDFIMPORT, MAPIMPORT, SCRIPT…).
| Value | File |
|---|---|
| 0 | The path is typed on the command line; Enter, ~ or Browse open the dialog box |
| 1 | The Windows file dialog box opens directly, with the formats of the command |
Notes
- In scripts (SCRIPT and
--guion), AutoLISP routines and the API or MCP the path is still typed, even when FILEDIA is 1, as in AutoCAD. - Cancelling the dialog box cancels the command.
- It applies to the session: it is not saved in the drawing (in AutoCAD it is a program setting).
