There isn't one. Commands in Inventor are entered through icons in the standard ribbon or by use of the Right Click Marking Menu. You can use keyboard shortcuts as well and can be configured through the Customize command found on the Tools Tab.

You can also turn on Dynamic Prompting in your Application Options on the General Tab. This will give you a cursor tooltip on what needs to happen next in a command.

Hi!

If you want to create a line in drawings, you have to create a sketch. Then you have the line command.

@stephensashley

Are you trying to compare Inventor LT with AutoCAD or Acad LT interface? Don't... Not the same software..

2 EE's saw this as a user was looking for a command line (like in AutoCAD) and 2 other EEs saw it as the user is looking to draw a line in an Inventor drawing.

So @stephensashley which thing were you looking for?

I was looking for a command line like Autocad where I could enter “scale text”
type commands.
