on screen display help

I Think its simply the on screen curser coordinates... still , where do i find the option to turn it on?

F6

if you press F6 while in a command it will toggle on - Polar - Cartesian - off

they don't come on.. i don't get it....

I should say.. the ones that follow the curser around do come on.. can't that be docked away from the curser?

You must be on a more recent release with the "Heads-up" display? I'm sorry I don't know. I'm still in the dark ages with R14. You should be able to disable the heads-up, then view the coordinate display in the status bar.

Click Dyn on the status bar to turn Dynamic Input on and off. From the Autocad Help Not sure if that's what your asking about.
