The new population projections indicate that nine countries will make up more than half the projected growth of the global population between now and 2050: India, Nigeria, Pakistan, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Ethiopia, the United Republic of Tanzania, Indonesia, Egypt and the United States of America (in descending order of the expected increase). The world’s population continues to increase, but growth rates vary greatly across regions The resulting changes in the size, composition and distribution of the world’s population have important consequences for achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), the globally agreed targets for improving economic prosperity and social well-being while protecting the environment. The report also confirmed that the world’s population is growing older due to increasing life expectancy and falling fertility levels, and that the number of countries experiencing a reduction in population size is growing. The study concluded that the world’s population could reach its peak around the end of the current century, at a level of nearly 11 billion. The World Population Prospects 2019: Highlights, which is published by the Population Division of the UN Department of Economic and Social Affairs, provides a comprehensive overview of global demographic patterns and prospects. The world’s population is expected to increase by 2 billion persons in the next 30 years, from 7.7 billion currently to 9.7 billion in 2050, according to a new United Nations report launched today. This is a known bug, and one that can cause some frustration if the user is not privy to this info.Growing at a slower pace, world population is expected to reach 9.7 billion in 2050 and could peak at nearly 11 billion around 2100 17 June 2019, New York If you really like it set to 2, you can just undock the properties palette and leave it undocked, and all will be fine. The way to fix this issue is, of course, set the STARTUP system variable to anything other than 2, and restart the program. It only occurs under those unique circumstances of docked palette and STARTUP setting of 2. If you have it docked, but have the variable set to either 0 or 1, you will have no issues. If the properties palette is not docked, this issue will not occur regardless of the STARTUP setting. To recap, the properties palette will disappear on your subsequent program startup if you have the palette docked AND you set the STARTUP system variable to 2. If indeed you set this value to 2 AND you have your properties palette docked when you make this variable change, then you will encounter the disappearing properties palette. However, if you would like the program to start without opening a new drawing, this is where the problem may occur. If you are interested in setting this variable so that the Create New Drawing dialog shows up prompting you to choose a template to start from then you may set this value to 1.
The out-of-the-box setting is 0 which will open a new drawing at startup using the default template file set for QNEW.
If available in the application a custom dialog box is displayed Starts without opening a drawing template file. Starts without opening a drawing template file, and displays the Startup or the Create New Drawing dialog box. Here are the settings available and what they do: 0ĭisplays the Select Template dialog box, or uses a default drawing template file set in the Options dialog box, on the Files tab. The STARTUP system variable controls what displays when the program starts up or when a new drawing is opened. Does any of this sound familiar?ĭid this disappearance coincide with you making a change to your STARTUP system variable? If so, I have a possible solution. Maybe it has shrunken down to a barely-visible sliver somewhere. You cycle through toggling it off and then on again to no avail. You look to the home tab of the ribbon to toggle it on, but it is already on. One day you are working in Civil 3D 2014 to find that your Properties Palette you use so often is nowhere to be found.
