Hey Everybody,
Brandon here back with another new 2 minute tuesday! I think I almost got this one to be around the 2 minute mark for the tutorial portion, so yay me!
Anyways, back to the video, in todays TMT I go over one of the best and most common ways to save a ton of time in AutoCAD, customizing your commands/Alias! It used to be a bit of a pain to change command alias using a text editor and modifying the .pgp (program parameter) file manually but for a while now this option has been conveniently included in the ribbon bar and with it’s own dialog boxes.
Side note: This trick is actually mentioned in my book: The AutoCAD Productivity Handbook as one of the ways I recommend for helping save you time and be a more productive drafter.
The video shows you step by step how to go about creating an new alias for a common command as well as how to change or remove the shortcut of an existing command, check it out and let me know what you will change?:)
Don’t forget to let me know what autocad tip, trick or tutorial you’d like to see in the next one!
