In this document the commands or variables in English will be identified as follows: (English words), consult the correspondence table of the reference manual for all the translations of the French - English commands; the commands will be identified by the use of the following form: 'COMMAND'.

PRESENTATION OF THE STANDARD DRAWING ENVIRONMENT

Command bar

The Control Bar, key {Ctrl + 9} if it inadvertently disappears, is at the bottom of the screen and displays the most recent commands, it can be enlarged by dragging the upper limit
up, personally I like to display at least 3 lines, some orders will use two lines for a single entry, so leaving it to 3 lines, we make sure to see the order at complete as well as the previous command, useful in order to trace what one has The {F2} key will display an enlarged version of the command bar, displaying more lines, one can 'maximize' it which facilitates the reading of the commands previous, still this is helpful
when you have to go up the flow of orders.
The command line can also be floating, using the {F12} key, this is the dynamic input mode, the floating bar follows the cursor and the data input can be done by entering the values in the illuminated field, the other fields are accessible using the {TAB} key.
With the {F12} key, in dynamic display Below in classic view, the control bar locked at the bottom of the screen, activated with the {Ctrl + 9} keys.
