Shortcut to Snap in Drafting Settings

[-Ryan-]

In Drafting Setting (object snap tab), I'm used to typing the letter to activate or de-activate the snaps. For example, I would type E to activate Endpoint, because E used to be underlined. Now no Letter activates the snaps. Has this shortcut (feature) been taken away?

They change what short cuts do what sometimes which is super dumb.  You can edit or add any shortcuts you want though. So you can add all your snap short cuts back in. Here's the link to autodesk help that says how.

This seems to be true.  The shortcuts don't work until you click on the general area within the dialog that you want to use keyboard shortcuts.  This happens in the ACA profile but not in the AutoCAD profile.

My CUI is setup, as all my F1-F12 keys are shortcuts. I guess I'm going to have to use the SHIFT right click feature while drawing. BTW, the letters are showing underlined again in drafting settings. Here's the pick, as you can see the E is underlined for Endpoint.

Thanks, dbroad. I can now click on the area to use the letter keys.

Messing around with this I'm not sure what you mean by "general area in the dialog" dbroad.

In ACA, with the osnap dialog open, the ALT shortcuts are only partially supported until you actually click in the area of the dialog that has the shortcuts you want to use.  Once you left mouse click on the dialog, using the ALT keys work.  This is a program bug and the solution offered is only a workaround. This may be specific to the US version so not everyone may experience the problem.
