Hi Mike and the rest of you.

Does anyone know why the CTRL + R doesn´t work anymore. I use it to quickly switch between multiple viewports. It doesn´t show in the CUI Keyboard Shortcuts either.

This is only in 2007 version.

This is a great list, thanks for taking the time to post.

A few of these control key combinations are straight from
microsoft windows. They will work with most programs.
Cut, Copy, Paste, Open, Save, Saveas will work everywhere.

Hi

Within AutoCAD 2007 - CTRL + R by default is present in the Acad.cui and is found under...

Keyboard Shortcuts -> Shortcut Keys -> CTRL + R

Have a good one, Mike

For additional info this thread may be worth a look.

Does anyone know to add/change my freeze and thaw quick command from FR & TH to CTRL + Up Arrow (for freeze) and CTRL + Down Arrow (for thaw)? I used to have this on our older version of AutoCAD but lost it when we converted to 2007.

Thanks in advance.
