A2K4 Acad.mnu

A2K4 Acad.mnu

A2K4 Acad.mnu

(OP)
When I used A2K, I had my OSnaps set to the number keys at the top of my keyboard for ease of use. (To me it is quicker to do it this way, rather than having to Shift + right click and having to find the OSnap that I want. Quicker than using TAB, and easier than having two or more OSnap show up). I assigned 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, for Cen, End, Int, Mid, Node, Perp, Quad, Tan, & Int. I would identify this in my Acad.MNU file, and type Menu at the command prompt to load my Acad.MNU file to activate the undated file. However, in A2K4, 1 - 8 will work the above listed OSnaps, but 9 will not work. The following is how I have it written. ["1"]_CEN ["2"]_ENDP ["3"]_INT ["4"]_MID ["5"]_NODE ["6"]_PERP ["7"]_QUA ["8"]_TAN ["9"]_NEAREST I tried to changeing it to _NEA, I tried assigning it to # 8 instead of _TAN, # 7 instead of QUA, but I still can not get to work. Does any one have an idea why I can't get it to work? I am able to start a command and type in nea to get the nearest OSnap to work. Your help would be greatly appreciated.

RE: A2K4 Acad.mnu

I really don't know but have you tried removing the _ in your list?

RE: A2K4 Acad.mnu

(OP)
For what ever reason the under score _ in required in the code. However I tried it with out it and it still did not work. Even after I typed MENU and updated the acad.mnu file.

I did change the code to
[CONTROL+"9"]_nea
After I saved and typed menu at the command prompt, this version worked.
