command window input

recently installed DraftSight 32 bit on Wind 7 pro - i have a few problems with the COMMAND WINDOW i hope someone can help with - the Command Window does not stay permanently selected but have to use F2 every time a new drawing is viewed , is there an option to permanently set it ?  Secondly the Command Window dosn't show any input values  [real time] , text height input etc  are there any options to show inputted info ?
