&lt;P&gt;If you like ribbons (some do), then i would suggest you to turn the variable MENUBAR to 1, it will be convenient for you, beleive me. It would be a complement to this new interface.&lt;/P&gt;

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi all,&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Okay, so I trained on AutoCAD 12 like a million years ago--spent several months in technical school and got a pro certificate.&amp;nbsp; Is the newest version of AutoCAD unrecognizable?&amp;nbsp; Will I have to train back in from scratch all over again?&amp;nbsp; I assume yes--but I'm just asking any&amp;nbsp; and veteran users if there is anything in the current AutoCAD that I'd still recognize and remember from Edition 12 of AutoCAD.&amp;nbsp; Kindly e-mail me. Thank you!&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;a href="https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/13271897"&gt;@totaltext&lt;/a&gt; If you remember perfectly how to draft in the program, and recall the command names quite well and how they all worked, the only things you will stumble on might be if some of the behaviors have changed (or old commands getting replaced with new once).&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;if it has been more than a couple of years since you touched AutoCAD then yeah, you most likely do need a referesher: if you are good at being self-paced there are tons of online written and video-base tutorials (many free) to help you catch up.&lt;BR /&gt;If it looks to be overwhelming, I suggest at least paying for an intro-class either online/interactive or in person at a local college.</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;&lt;a href="https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/13271897"&gt;@totaltext&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;Setting your new autocad workspace up in ''Classic Mode with a Menubar''&amp;nbsp; will go a long way in making feel in a similar 1992 environment. Nowadays Autocad uses all sorts of Ribbons, Tiles, Toolpallets and stuff for commands. The classical small button icons from the 1990's are still available and widely used.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;User interface customization HAS changed alot.However, the commands have evolved along the same baseline that you were taught in the 1990's.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;The setup i use these days does remind me of older setup. The reason for choosing this type of interface is the optimize drafting space while reducing the space taken up by the icons.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;With a bit of work you can get your 2023 autocad to look like this, but more shinnier...&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-inline" image-alt="r13.png" style="width: 866px;"&gt;&lt;img src="https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/1151638i7AE06BA7B773D36D/image-dimensions/866x556?v=v2" width="866" height="556" role="button" title="r13.png" alt="r13.png" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;You can see for yourself by jumping onto youtube and just do a search for "Autocad 2023 tutorial for beginners"&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Of course you'll need to download a trial version so you can run it &amp;amp; learn at the same time.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Your question is lacking details and very subjective.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;You don't say how long you used AutoCAD after school. If you never used it, you'll almost definitely need some retraining. Any retraining, 3rd party of self-taught would be very benificial.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I worked with a lot of current users through the various interface changes. Some adapted very well, others struggled a lot.&lt;/P&gt;</description>
