Help! I installed Windows on my new mac book pro ( w/ bootcamp not parellels) and when I'm in autocad 2014 the delete key doesn't work. It works when I'm in Revit just not AutoCad. Is this a mac UI issue capability with autocad or is this something i can change/fix?

Also, when i go into some of the menus only half of the text shows. (**SEE Attachment for more clarification)

Is your PICKFIRST system variable set to 0? Typically, the delete key will work when PICKFIRST is set to 1.

The delete key hardware is different on a MBP for some reason it seems. It seems to be more of a backspace key. I've installed Windows via Bootcamp on my MBP as well as AutoCAD 2014 and I am seeing the same thing.

e= erase is the only way

if pickfirst =1 doesnt work,
if bootcamp> keyboard > tick the box use f1,f2, etc doesnt work....
