How do I get the Array dialog box back in CAD?

This post is for those who want the good old Array dialog box back. To display the Array dialog box, just input Arrayclassic, and press Enter key, shown as below,

This command name may be long, so if you want to use this classic array command and want the Array dialog box to be popped up every time you enter AR, just do the following:

  1. If you are using 2D Drafting workspace, find Manage tab > Customize settings panel > Edit Aliases, shown as below,

If you are using GstarCAD Classic workspace, find Tools > Customize > Edit Program Parameters, shown as below,

Either way could open the .pgp file.

2. Then find the ARRAY, and change it to ARRAYCLASSIC, and save the file.

3. If you don’t want to restart your CAD system to make the modified .pgp file valid, you can just enter REINIT and press Enter key, and click Yes when you get the following prompt,

4. The next time you enter AR and press Enter key, you’ll have the ARRAY dialog box displayed.
