Inventor 2015 shortucts with FDS addin again

Hi everybody,

 

Is there any hotfix planned to solve the shortcuts issue in Inventor with Factory addin loaded - one has to reset the shortcuts to defaults before the traditional shortcuts can be used (for example "D" for dimensioning and NOT for Discussion Forum and so on...). This problem with FDS persists over three FDS versions with no solution...

 

Best regards,

Martin Madaj.

Right, behavior on FDS 2015 RTM  is : pressing D, there would be Dimension and Discussion Forum listed. However if you Press Enter key then you can get Dimmension command activeated directly.

 

I want to check with you what behavior you are expecting?

Remove all the Factory shortcut keys? Or dont let Factory shortcut keys showed in Non-Factory Environemnt?

Or how about if user uncheck “Use default multi-character Command Aliases”, Factory shortcut keys will not show? All factory shortcut keys are multi-characters..

 

thanks,

Irene

Hi Irene,

 

the problem is that I don't want to hit Enter after pressing D key. I have "Use default multi-character Command Aliases" unchecked but Inventor does not care. Only resetting keyboard shortcuts to defaults helps but only for a current Inventor session. When I close Inventor and run it again, I have to reset the shortcuts again. Inventor does not remember the settings. Also I tried to remove the DF shortcut but Inventor does not remember it. I'd like to use traditional Inventor shortcut keys. Also I'm convinced it is not a matter of user rights - I'm the admin, Inventor runs in admin mode and was installed in admin mode with no antivirus present in Windows. I know other user of FDS who are experiencing the same issue (among my customers and also here at forum, see here).

 

Approximately one year ago I saw the opened case on this topic (for FDS 2013?) with statement from Autodesk that it will be fixed in some service pack but it seems nothing has been done...

Hello, Martin,

 

thank you for letting us know the detail issues. there are really issues for what you have encoutnered, we are reporting defects to track them.

 

1.  I have "Use default multi-character Command Aliases" unchecked but Inventor does not care.  It is one issue we have logged.

 

2. Also I tried to remove the DF shortcut but Inventor does not remember it.  It is one issue we have logged.

 

3. Only resetting keyboard shortcuts to defaults helps but only for a current Inventor session. When I close Inventor and run it again, I have to reset the shortcuts again.  Actaully resetting keyboard shortcuts to default then remove Factory shortcut keys, which is not expected behavior. so it is one issue.

 

thanks,

Irene

Hi Volkan,

 

Yes, we have solved this issue in FDS 2015 Feature Update Pack (Released in September) and future FDS.

 

Here is the current behavior for your information.

  1. By default, uncheck “Use default multi-character Command Aliases”, Factory shortcut keys would not be activated.
  2. Customized shortcut keys for factory command will not be overwritten by re-start Inventor.   
  3. Delete most of the Factory related short cut keys. Keep followings which are frequently used and have no confilict with other inventor short cut keys in using environment.
