AutoCAD Tip
In 2000-2004 -
Hit Ctrl+1 to pop up the properties docker.
Loadsa things to change in there. Particularly useful

Nick,
That is now known as the Properties Pallete (was formerly called the
Properties Dialog Box) and yes that is a very powerful pallete to display or
edit properties of selected objects. That coupled with the QSELECT makes
selection/filtering a very useful pair of features to get to know.
Also some other quick-keys are (when using Windows Shortcuts & AutoCAD 2005)
:
CTRL+1 = Properties
CTRL+2 = DesignCenter
CTRL+3 = Tool Palletes
CTRL+4 = Sheet Set Manager
CTRL+5 = Info Pallette
CTRL+6 = dbConnect
CTRL+7 = Markup Set Manager
CTRL+A = Select All
CTRL+B = SNAP ON/OFF (typically F9)
CTRL+C = CopyClip
CTRL+D = Coords ON/OFF (typically F6)
CTRL+E = Isoplane Toggle (typically F5)
CTRL+F = OSNAP ON/OFF (typically F3)
CTRL+G = GRID ON/OFF (typically F7)
CTRL+H = Pickstyle 0/1 or 2/3 toggle (Groups & Associateve Hatch)
CTRL+I = ?
CTRL+J = Executes last command (typically a spacebar, enter or quick
right-click)
CTRL+K = Hyperlink
CTRL+L = ORTHO ON/OFF (typically F8)
CTRL+M = ?
CTRL+N = NEW Drawing
CTRL+O = OPEN existing drawing
CTRL+P = Print current drawing
CTRL+Q = Quit
CTRL+R = Switch between viewports
CTRL+S = Save
CTRL+T = Tablet mode ON/OFF
CTRL+U =?
CTRL+V = Paste from the Clipboard
CTRL+W = ?
CTRL + X =Cuts object to the Clipboard
CTRL+Y = Repeats Last Action (REDO)
CTRL+Z = Reverses Last Action (UNDO)
CTRL+click = Cycle between overlapping ojects
CTRL+drag = copy & paste
CTRL+F6 or CTRL+TAB switch between open drawings
F1 = Displays Help
F2 = Toggles text window on/off
F3 = Toggles OSNAP
F4 = Toggles TABMODE
F5 = Toggles ISOPLANE
F6 = Toggles COORDS
F7 = Toggles GRIDMODE
F8 = Toggles ORTHOMODE
F9 = Toggles SNAPMODE

You can also do an "ortho" pan using shift+mouse wheel. |
