AutoCAD LT :: How To Fix A Keystroke To Just One Command
Sep 22, 2011
I am testing the LT 2012 version in Windows. I want to use the pan command which used to be a easily visible button, one click. In 2012 I have to go to View>Pan to acess the button, 2 clicks, If I type P I get a popup menu with every command starting with a P, with Pan at the top, click on Pan, 2 clicks again.
So, can I move the Pan button to the Home tab to make it simpler? Can I edit something so when I type P it knows I mean Pan and don't have to make another choice?
This is really slowing down my process and work flow, it's like stutter! Used to be a seamless flow of click, click, click. Now it is click, pause, search, click, pause, search, click.

First I will state that everything within the program, to my knowledge, works just fine. Although..
I'm having a really strange issue when I try to type a command. It's an intermittent problem that occurs very often and can be extremely frustrating.
If I try to type a command, i.e.. M followed by enter to move an object, often times the command will repeat "MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM" and the command entry will fail. This happens for every button I press too. Letters, numbers, and even the Enter key will be repeatedly entered into the command prompt. Often times I've already pressed enter to execute the command. During this process the whole program seems to freeze, but not for too long. So I often have to enter the command multiple times, regardless of which button is repeating itself.
The repeating of a keystroke only lasts between 1-2 seconds but as I said has a very frequent occurrence.
I'm almost positive that this has nothing to do with my keyboard, as I've never experienced this kind of problem elsewhere. This is my machine at work and I've never encountered an issue as frustrating at this. Could it be something that my machine is doing?

Out of the blue today, my OSNAP shortcuts disappeared. Whenever I'd bring up the menu, I could not hit the E key on the keyboard for Endpoint or any other shortcut keystroke. Upon more research, this applied to all menus. Turns out this is not an Autodesk issue but a Windows setting. Here's how to restore if you encounter this as well.
1. Hit the Windows + U keys to bring up the Ease of Accees Center
2. Click on "Make the keyboard easier to use
3. Check Underline keyboard shortcuts and access keys

in ACAD 2013 if I use object tracking to space an object or dimension (or anything, really), as soon as type on any key the tracking goes away. What can I do to change this? I do not have this problem in 2012.

I'm not that good at typing and when I make a mistake in Photoshop CS6, suddenly find myself in a strange place from which I often don't know how to return from. I use about twenty keystroke commands, but there are so many others I don't use and which cause me problems.
Is there someplace on CS6 to turn off those commands I never use?

In previous versions, when in the file requester, with the File Type field focused, I could type the first letter of the format I wanted (ex. J for Jpeg), and it would select it. That was a nice little feature that sped up the saving process (...didn't have to open up the File Type pulldown, and scroll through the selections until I found the one I wanted).
Is that now gone in CS3 (extended), or is there some setting I can change to get that back?

I'm trying to use CTRL+A;Delete;CTRL+D key combination in order to clear the content of the active layer. When I'm doing it manually via the keyboard, the results are as expected.
But when I feed this and a sequence of keystrokes to one of my Wacom tablet keys: If the pointer is off canvas nothing happens, and if it's over the canvas, the canvas gets surrounded by a blue border, same as if I were holding down the CTRL key alone for selecting the whole layer.
Which key combination should yield the expected result via a table keystroke?

I am currently writing a series of routines for setting the layers for text, leaders and dimension commands. The end goal is a system where any annotation command sets the correct layer for the duration of the command, then reverts back to the layer that was active before the command.
I have managed to complete all the code, and it appears to be working fine, I just have one question: I have used -layer "m" "Lay_name" etc... for all layer setting commands, rather than any code to see if the layer exists already. In my limited testing this seems to be suitable, nothing that exists on that layer seems to be affected.
I know how to write code to determine if the layer exists already and set the layer instead, but so far it seems unnecessary??

I press CTRL+9 to make the Command Line disappear while drawing. When I plot (or when doing a plot preview) , the Command Line appears again by itself. So I always have to turn the Command Line off manually after each plot
The bug still happens;
- if Dynamic Input is turned off or on
- if I plot to a real device or in PDF
- if the Cammand Line Palette i docked or floating.
This is not an issue in AutoCAD 2012 so I guess it has to do with the new way they programmed the revamped Command Line palette in 2013.

I need to save a drawing file and give it the name of my desire using a single command, I don't want to issue "saveas" and then specify the name in the file name prompt. This problem is has been faced when I was using ScriptPro and I couldn't succeeded to do that. Hence I need to know if it is feasible to do the stuff using a single command. It will be preferred if I can choose the location to save the file also rather than save the file to the default location.

without reiterating a lot of what is said in this thread: [URL] ......
This happen outside the potential malware infection?
if you care to not click-through, the problem is that certain commands (not all of them) simply do not disply in the command line. so the MOVE command for example looks like this:
NORMAL:
Command: _move
Select objects:
NOW:
Command:
Select objects:
same with QSAVE and who knows how many others.

1. Signed into my Autodesk360 account.
2. Assigned a coordinate system (SC83F) to my map.
3. Entered the GEO MAP command and selected "A" for aerial image.
Following these steps, I am unable to display the aerial imagery.

Few years back our instructor in CAD teaches 'limits' since then i never use limits in all of my drawings. One thing i notice though is when i zoom extents my object seems so big and sometimes i can't use Pan command so what i did is to make a very long line just to make my object small..
* Does setting up limits a must before starting a job?

I tried applying this flag to one of my commands for Autocad 2006. The documentation states that it forces users to enter the full namespace of the command in order to invoke it.
The problem is that even after defining the local, global, and group names I can't get the command to load. I've tried every possible namespace I could think of when entering the command into Autocad. The command works if I do not apply the flag, and typing GroupName.GlobalName into the command line also works - unless I add the Undefined flag.
[CommandMethod("group1", "cmd1", CommandFlags.Undefined)] _
Public Sub Test()
End Sub

I started on AutoCAD about two weeks ago for my company. The drawings that I have done are in a viewport. There are objects outside of the viewport that I am supposed to copy and past into the viewport to use (transformers, anchors, other utility stuff). The problem with these is that they are in paperspace and I would like to copy them into modelspace. When I try to copy them into model space it says "Duplicate definition of block ****** ignored." able to copy and paste into drawing instead of doing insert command all the time and finding desired block. I am running autocad lt 2004 and do not have a chspace command.

When I used earlier versions of Acad I used to be able to do a calculation within a command. Like if I wanted to offset something equally on each side of a mid-point I could start the offset command then for distance I could put in the distance I wanted/2 (ie if the total distance between the 2 lines needed to be 85.375 i I could do 87.357/2). Is there some setting that I am missing or is this something that has disappeared from Acad?
