AutoCAD Tip: How Do I Get the Old Array Version Back
22 May 2013
The Autodesk product teams receive several emails from the Autodesk Product Feedback Form. Your feedback goes to the products teams and they read them. In many cases team members respond if there is enough detail and time permitting but they can’t respond to every feedback submission, but do try to help when they can.
This solution on the AutoCAD ARRAY Command is by AutoCAD Test Development’s Daniel Kuhmann.
New ARRAY Classic ARRAY Dialog
So you like the way the old pre AutoCAD 2012 Array command worked with the dialog. Even though there is more functionality in the new ARRAY version you don’t want to deal with the learning curve or change your ways. I understand as I still type DDARRAY as old habits are hard to break. No problem here is the solution to get the Classic ARRAY back.
The command you’re looking for is ARRAYCLASSIC.
If you are using AutoCAD 2012, you will need to install service pack 1 or 2 to use the ARRAYCLASSIC command. If you are using AutoCAD 2013 or AutoCAD 2014, you will not have to install a service pack.
Now wasn’t that just ARRAY of sunshine <bad pun>
