'P - Transparent commands not working

[snappy]

I am running Autocad 2004. When I try to use 'p ('pan) or any other Transparent command it comes up with "Command unknown". I have used these commands before and don't know why they don't work anymore. Is there a variable I need to reset?

For transparent command of pan, go to the hand in pulldown. What other transparent commands are you trying to use?

I used to be able to type 'p at the command line and Pan would start. Also in the middle of a move command you could type 'p and the pan command would activate transparently in the move command. It works in my 2000i version but for the past week has not worked in my 2004 version.

Invest in a wheel mouse and press on the wheel to pan. I left the PAN
command back in r14.

perhaps P is not the core AutoCAD PAN command in your setup? Works fine
here.

Try typing the full 'pan at the command line - I suspect it will work. The abbreviated 'p works because an "alias" has been set up in your PGP file. If 'p doesn't work, your acad.pgp file has been modified or is not being loaded when AutoCAD starts.

Thanks for the help. The acad.pgp file was not loading.

If you get a mouse with a wheel on it, then you don't have to worry about this.
You can zoom, and pan with the wheel. If you haven't heard of this before,
you must try it.

But to answer your question about 'P , I would check in your acad.pgp file and
make sure it's in there as it should be.
