Favorite Command/Shortcut
(OP)
Everyone has a favorite shortcut. what's yours?
if you have several go ahead and list them. also if you created your own hotkeys u can list them also as someone else may benefit from it.
My favorites:
-Layout Scrolling: Ctrl + Page Up/down
-Clean workplace: Ctrl + 0
-Match Properties: Ctrl + M

TT = _TXT2MTXT = Convert single line text (yucky!) to Mtext. Use it constantly.
LD = LWDisplay = Makes lineweight appear as they will plot. By default, it is OFF, I always turn it ON.

ex - extend
z e - zoom extents
Ctrl+Shift+c - copy with basepoint
l - line
pl - polyline
pe - edit polyline
not exactly in that order
And the good oldie middle mouse button-wheel combo for panning and zooming

Although Double-click automatic text editting is very cool.
And who can forget that, since R2000, the ability to select a VP and pick a scale out of a pull-down window? No more drawing lines in Model 1.000 feet long, switching to PS and Zooming

I had to add the shortcuts to .pgp, they weren't there.
TT = _TXT2MTXT = Convert single line text (yucky!) to Mtext. Use it constantly.
LD = LWDisplay = Makes lineweight appear as they will plot. By default, it is OFF, I always turn it ON.
Lha:
Can you please enlighten us on how to go about doing something like adding shortcuts to the PGP file?
i have two i would like to shortcut as they currently only can be used hitting the GUI buttons and im ready to shortcut them: Revcloud and PSLTSCALE, also 'stretch multiple entities' from the Express Menu.
a tutorial would be cool. :D
RE: Favorite Command/Shortcut
You do not have to modify any file manually because you have the Express menu. Just enter "aliasedit" at the command line to modify the command aliases.

(DEFUN C:LO nil (COMMAND "LAYER" "OFF" "*" ""))
Then conversely this will turn all but frozen on
(DEFUN C:OL nil (COMMAND "LAYER" "ON" "*" ""))
Tracking (shortcut tk) however, has become my current favorite.

When you go to select all the lines to trim, hit F for Fence. Select a crossing across all the lines to Trim or Extend, instead of picking each object separately. The fence command will work whenever AutoCAD asks for objects, regardless of which command is active.
