Welcome terryc,

I've never heard about this kind of issue.
Can you please be more specific about the steps to reproduce your issue.
Which LibreCAD version do you use? Which OS?
Inch or metric?

What happens when the issue occur? Any message in the command history box?
Can you copy/paste the command history which leads to the issue to a file and post it here?

I started a new drawing and entered lines/polylines from the command line in the following way;

Does this surely happen with both, lines (li) and polylines (pl)?

It occurs mostly in the latter (not necessarily last) entries on any layer.

How can I understand that?
Does this mean, that you are able to add entities with more than 66 segments on lower layers?
Is 66 the number of all entities in the file or on a layer or vertices of a polyline?

For testing I created commands with 100 coordinates and it worked well with line and polyline.
I used multi line pasting which was added with 2.1.2 or 2.1.3 I think.
This allows pasting multi line commands or load multi line files with valid commands.
There is a little button on the right side of the LibreCAD command line if this is available in your version.
You can also paste this to the LibreCAD command line to see if work in your version:
li;0,0;10,10;20,0;30,10;40,0;k
If this works for you, you can save or prepare commands in text files for easier testing.

The only problem I recognized was with polyline.
When you activate the polyline tool from menu or tool bar, you will see a drop down in the top tool options bar appear with close and undo button.
This is the polyline creation mode. If the mode is not 'Line', this may explain your issue in case of polylines.
Set it to 'Line' and try again.
If it is already 'Line', it's correct and not relevant for the issue.
