Enabling the Drawing Status Bar in AutoCAD

Sources: 1

Issue:

The Drawing Status Bar that displays the current display configuration and drawing scale is not visible in AutoCAD.

Solution:

To enable the drawing status bar:

1.   Enter STATUSBAR at the command line.

2.   Adjust the variable to 2 to display both the application status bar and drawing status bar.

If the drawing status bar does not display (or certain elements do not appear), toggle the STATUSBAR variable to 0 and then back to 1.
