Return key not longer works in Autocad 2024 for Mac

Huh? You have to hit space or the command just fails if you hit return....Is there a setting for this? Geez...took me a while to figure out what the heck was going on....

 

Thanks,

Russell

Hi Russel,

 

I don't see this problem on my side.

What keyboard are you using?

Which Return key do you mean? Is it return key on main keyboard or on the numeric keyboard?

 

>>>>the command just fails

Please clarify - what do you mean by "command fails"?

Your not the first 2024 user to report this: not sure there is a quick fix without knowing more about your setup, OS version, keyboard/mouse etc. OR roll back to 2023 until a patch is provided for 2024.

Also, spacebar while writing text does not add a space....It is the Apple Magic Keyboard. The spacebar obviously works since I can hit enter for commands ( and write this message) also return works too.

 

This is a pretty nuts problem to have. I have to copy a space and past it in order to add a space while typing mtext...

 

edit - This is by the way the normal return key

edit - So Shift+space adds a space...What the.......Also return works normal inside mtext.

edit - Also Shift+return works as return......Uh...wierd stuff

@betazero ,

 

Looks like something is wrong in the interaction between AutoCAD and your current keyboard.

What macOS do you have on your Mac?

Have you tried different keyboard?

Hi @betazero ,

 

I think I figured out the root of your problem.

It is related to custom shortcuts you created with CUI command.

The solution is >>>>here<<<<
