2007 Toolbar and Icon Descriptions

(OP)
One of the new to the 3d world of designeers is wondering if there is a document that shows the icon followed by a brief description of the command that can be printed out for reference. I see that if i search for toolbar in the help section of solidworks it will list them out for me, however wondering if someone has already done the leg work. Thanks

RE: 2007 Toolbar and Icon Descriptions

If you go to Tools / Customize / Keyboard Shortcuts you can print out a list there.

I think if you hover over the icon it should tell you what it is.

I mentioned to him about hovering over the icon and already printed out a list of the shortcuts. This guy is from the old school and likes to have printed material. Any other suggestions.

Thanks macduff i guess reading is not my strong point. I forgot to uncheck the only shortcuts box. Thanks

RE: 2007 Toolbar and Icon Descriptions

Take note though that different lists of commands are given when different modes (part, assy, drawing) are active.

cheers
