AutoCAD Keyboard Shortcut Keys

Did you know you can print out a list of the shortcut keys from within AutoCAD, well if you didn'd here is how to do it.

  • Type 'CUI' into command line or click on the 'User Interface' button under the Manage Tab on the Customization Panel. You will now get the Cutomize User Interface dialog box on the screen.
  • If you scroll down the list on the left hand side 'Customization in All Files' to Keyboard Shortcuts as shown in below image.
    
  •  You will now see a list of all the current Keyboard Shortcuts appear in a dialog box to the left hand side as shown in below image.


  • Then select either All Keys, Accelerator Keys or Temporary Override Keys and hit the print button
Please note I have used AutoCAD 2010 to do this and it may not be applicable to earlier version of AutoCAD.

Autodesk WikiHelp

If you haven't already checked the Autodesk WikiHelp website http://wikihelp.autodesk.com/enu why don't you I have just been on. It's been set up to combine learning resources provided by Autodesk with knowledge from the user community.

Although not too much on there just yet but its a cracking idea and hopefully will be full of great things in the near future and the best thing about it you can contribute if you want.

Why not check it out.
