AutoCAd Lt 2015

Anonymous — Mon, 23 Mar 2015 22:14:49 GMT

I just switched from AutoCad Lt 2009 for PC to AutoCad Lt for Mac and having a lot of trouble -

can you get the ribbon format?

when i select more than one item - do i always have to hold the shift key - is there a way to change that?

i like to keep the snaps off and then use them for each line - can i do that ? like start a line from a midpoint and go to a perpendicular point ?

is there a good manual?

Welcome to the Autodesk Forums!

Hi Lisa,

1/ Ribbon is not available in AutoCAD for Mac

2/ You need to clear check mark "Use Shift key to add selection" in the "Cursor & Selection" tab of AutoCAD Preferences window (menu "AutoCAD LT 2015" -> Preferences

3/ You can accomplish this the same way as in PC version. Clear all running object snaps on the "Object Snaps" tab of AutoCAD "Drafting Settings" window (menu Tools -> "Drafting Settings"). than choose one of the following methods:

- use keyboard shortcuts NEA, END, MID, etc. when AutoCAD asks you to pick point

- use right click context menu "Snap overrides" which is available inside most of drafting/editing commands

- use OSNAP context menu inside drafting/editing command - you can activate it with Shift+right click or with middle click (if the system variable MBUTTONPAN=0)

- create custom buttons for object snaps on Tool Sets palette and use them when you need

4/ About manual - I think you can try this:

Why does "save as" only offer choices of old formats... isn't there a file type for 2015?

AutoCAD 2015 and new AutoCAD 2016 which is available now on PC both use 2013 DWG format. There is no newer than 2013 DWG format.

When using a command such as "stretch" and you are selecting objects - how do you get your window to be in ortho mode - a rectangle - as opposed to a random shaped bubble?

When you start to make selection you just need to pick two points- at the he first an at the second corner, you don't need to drag mouse with pick button pressed.
