CAD shortcut keys are divided into two categories: one is the command-based shortcuts, such as L for drawing lines and C for drawing circles； Another category is keyboard shortcuts, such as Ctrl+C (copy) and Ctrl+V (paste), etc. The flexible use of CAD shortcut keys enables designers to quickly access various functional commands and drawing tools, thereby improving CAD design efficiency. However, designers often face such embarrassments: forgetting CAD shortcut keys, being unable to find CAD function commands, etc. Admittedly, with so many CAD shortcuts, it’s by no means easy to memorize all of the commands. However, the Haochen CAD software has a clever feature that helps you quickly access shortcuts, enabling fast CAD drawing. 1. Method to open the custom shortcut command dialog: \"Tools\"—\"Customize\"—\"Edit Program Parameters\". Shortcut keys for command-based shortcuts can be added or modified through the \"Alias Edit\" function box. At the same time, it is also possible to export the custom shortcut key files (in PGP format) set up in the HaoChen CAD software, and import them into other computers for direct use; the specific steps are shown in the figure. http://bbs.xdcad.net/data/attachment/forum/202012/16/142740tikuu52l6mkze5mg.gif2. To open the dialog box for customizing keyboard shortcuts: go to \"Tools\"—\"Customize\"—\"Keyboard Shortcuts\". New keyboard shortcuts can be added, or existing ones can be edited, through the \"Customize Shortcuts\" function. 3. Prompt window when the cursor is paused: When you place the cursor on a function icon, the HaoChen CAD software will automatically display its corresponding Chinese and English names as well as a brief description of its functions. Command shortcuts are usually the first or first two letters of the English name; for example, the shortcut for the zoom command (SCAL) is SC. 4. Viewing from the menu bar: When you click on the menu bar, the function commands along with their corresponding shortcut keys are automatically displayed on the right side of the menu. Of course, designers can also use the \"Alt\" key together with the letter in the parentheses next to a menu item to expand that menu; after entering the command via the keyboard, they can then use the letter in the parentheses to execute the command. The specific steps are shown in the diagram. http://bbs.xdcad.net/data/attachment/forum/202012/16/142743rsz1d35x1azh4gb8.gif These are the tips for setting custom CAD shortcuts in HaoChen CAD software; you no longer need to worry about forgetting all the CAD shortcuts!
