The objects in a path array are presented uniformly spaced along the path. When you start a rectangular array, you see a 3 x 4 grid right away when you start a polar array, you see 6 items around the center right away. In 2012, AutoCAD gained new path arrays as well as a new ribbon-based interface for building arrays. It’s convenient not to have to go elsewhere to select an option. That’s where you’ll read through the selections to figure out which one you need, so pay attention there. My opinion: The ability to click choices on the command line appeals to me. To configure the Autocomplete function and open the Options dialog box, click the Colors button on the Display tab, select Command Line from the Content box, and then specify colors for each feature of the command line. To run a command, select it from the list and click it. To display a list of recent commands, click the down arrow on the left side of the Command line. The most essential new feature, in my opinion, is that you may now execute command options by clicking on them on the command line.

The command line has a new design and various new and improved functionality.

Of course, you can save drawings in an older format (much older than that) for others to open. Because to a new file format, users with previous releases will be unable to open drawings created in the new format.
