Don't know what I did, but auto 3D toggles off when I use the insert door or window icon.

Hi Bob,

What version of DataCAD are you using, and are you working with smart walls? Are the icons you are using the standard ones?

Check in the Tools/Program Preferences dialog box, and under the "Menus" tab see if "View Dependent Editing" is checked?

Thanks for the replies. I am using V15. The boxes for view dependent editing weren't checked. Still didn't work right after I checked them, so I changed the settings back to defaults. That worked.
Recently, I had been having some eye strain problems, so I changed to a black background to see if it would help. I really prefer working with a white background, so after a while, I changed it back.I must have inadvertently
changed some other settings. (I guess) Thanks for the help.
Happy New Year, everyone.
