Issue 5 note:
This issue makes the index current with Release 2004 (as indicated by the (2k4)suffix to the added variable names, or a ** suffix to those whose parameters were changed, mostly intial values) and adds a few minor refinements to make the search more convenient.
Purpose and background
All the system variables to be used with the current release of AutoCAD are listed in the command reference of the Help Section of that Release. However, that source only lists the variables alphabetically, and so this index is intended to suplement that list by listing them by their function rather than first letter of name. This index should assist the operator to find the appropriate variable more easily. Those listed from the command setvar ? * , contains all the system variable available in AutoCAD, including the obsolete and those intended for internal use only; obsolete ones are retained to allow custom autolisp programs to continue to function. Consequently some in that list will not appear in the help command reference list and in this index.
This index was originally written for the variables available for AutoCAD 2000i (as introduced in December '01 issue of PaperSpace) but has been modified to include the additional ones introduced through AutoCAD 2004. Hyperlinks from the topical to the alphabetical (both the original alphabetical index and hyperlinks were provided by Jeff Crawford) should allow the users to make their search more complete by providing an easy access
to a full description of the variable.Instructions for use
This index divides the 360+ variables into one of 25 categories according to function; in some cases the categories are further sub-divided (i.e., 9.
DIMENSION, Dimension Text). then the function is summarized briefly (i.e., Color , assigns) followed by the system variable (i.e., DIMCLRT) which is displayed in RED BOLD UPPERCASE UNDERLINED, which will serve as a Hyperlink to the alphabetical index by simply clicking the variable name. The alphabetical index can also be accessed by clicking on ACADVariables-Alphabetical
Most system variables interact with the AutoCAD environment or supplement commands and fall into one of these four categories:
The type of each variable is shown in the right column in the index below, as read, toggle, word# or binad, respectively.
These 25 category names are listed alphabetically here with links to the full category below:
