I can't use the QuickCalc: Unknown command

Anonymous — Wed, 29 Jan 2020 21:03:08 GMT

I feel like something is missing in the version of AutoCAD 2020 for Mac. I can't find the QuickCalc nor by commands (QC,QUICKCALC) nor by adding it to the ribbon. This is what it shows when I try to use it: Command: '_quickcalc Unknown command "QUICKCALC". Press F1 for help.

I already reseted AutoCAD and installed the last HotFix, but it didn't work.

Is QUICKCALC or CALC listed in HELP as a command in your version?

Welcome to Autodesk Forums!

Hi Diego,

QUICKCALC is not available in AutoCAD for Mac.
Inside AutoCAD for Mac you can use only command line version calculator - CAL:

You can use this command transparently inside another command for calculations by adding ' before the command name:
'CAL
If you have full AutoCAD, you can also use AutoLISP expressions for calculations.
