Function key freezes AutoCAD while in a draw or modify command
Issue:
AutoCAD freezes when pressing F8, or any other function key, while in an active command.
Solution:
Do the following:
Install the latest updates for AutoCAD.
For AutoCAD 2017, install the 2017.1.2 update.
For AutoCAD 2016, install the AutoCAD 2016.0.11 Update.
As an alternative, to work around the issue without the updates, do one or more of the following:
On the command line in AutoCAD, type TEMPOVERRIDES and change the value to 0 (zero).
Turn ortho and other functions on and off via the Status Bar.
Type in ORTHO at the command line instead of using the function key.
Rollback the Anniversary update (Microsoft allows only 10 days to do this
