The new issue of Cadalyst Magazine arrived in the office, and the back cover caught my attention because it advertises a video tutorial that promises to fix my biggest AutoCad peeve: the everlasting problem between pressing the F1 key when I mean to press Esc.
There is a moment of dread when AutoCad pauses while Help is being loaded. I’ve been commited to waiting for processor eternity.
Well, if you’re running a full version of AutoCad, you can reassign the F1 key to run the Cancel command instead. Check out this video to get out from this clumsy finger induced torture.
Other techniques and methods for using AutoCad as if it were a well-designed program are at the Cadalyst video website for Lynn Allen’s Tips and Tricks .
Now if only I were using not AutoCad LT, which allows you to reassign every key but F1.
