  AutoCAD Short tip
History of recent input is not working?

For example When you draw a circle and if you want to draw another circle then you would press the up arrow and then press Enter or right click on mouse and another circle would automatically drawn, but now you are unable to do it as when you press the up arrow you are getting coordinate relative to 0,0,0 and not a figure relative to the point you are working with. Don't panic I have found the solution and would be useful to those who face similar problem. All you have to is to change the INPUTHISTORYMODE System Variable value to "1" and now you would be able to get back your recent input working back. INPUTHISTORYMODE controls the content and location of the display of a history of user input and it is stored as a bitcode using the sum of the following values:
0 No history of recent input is displayed
1 History of recent input is displayed at the command line or in a dynamic prompt tooltip with access through Up Arrow and Down Arrow keys
2 History of recent input for the current command is displayed in the shortcut menu
4 History of recent input for all commands in the current session is displayed in the shortcut menu
8 Markers for recent input of point locations are displayed in the drawing
