A PyCAD command sequence can be terminated also by other actions, such as switching to and
back from another desktop window; we'd like to know if that's by design, or not.

    If you switch windows the active command is erased.
    This choice is due to the command structure that interact with the main application.

    We can do some improving on that of course ...
    But it's very useful having the command active even if we change the active drawing ?

    Regards,
    Matteo

    yes it is because if you want for example to use windows calculator or an openoffice calc sheet while drawing a polyline you simply can't...
    if it takes too long this could be postponed

    Now it works as asked.
    The command is erased only when you switch between different drawing inside PythonCAD
