Shift + Ortho

Please help. Not sure what happened, but shift as temporary override is not working as expected anymore.

Pressing shift while in line/xline command, permanently change ortho mode setting. Before it was temporary.

See below the behavior. As soon as I'm in xline/line command, I press shift and move mouse, ortho mode changes to 1 or 0 permanently.

Did you restart AutoCAD yet? Not seeing that issue here or a way to make holding SHIFT down permanently setting ORTHO unless your keyboard key is stuck down (you'll need to test with a different keyboard).

What's the string in your CUI for that override?

This is what is in mine

^P'_.orthomode $M=$(if,$(and,$(getvar,orthomode),1),$(-,$(getvar,orthomode),1),$(+,$(getvar,orthomode),1))

If its an AutoCAD bug, it seems unique to your setup so far: can you share a screenshot of your AutoCAD's ABOUT command pop-up please? If you can capture the entire RIBBON and program full window like this below that would be great too

You might end up having to RESET AutoCAD I suspect.

Is this on a laptop?

@AIR_123 You are missing the 2024.1 Update: ABOUT command will confirm what you have installed. If not, get it from your Autodesk Account Page here https://manage.autodesk.com/cep/#products-services/updates

 

Restart your PC afterwards.

If that did not help...  start a support ticket through your subscription portal as explained here

Some laptops have issues with AutoCAD and shift Keys. The way to 'fix' that is to create a new override. That said im not certain that is your issue, but it may make for a solution. Did your laptop recently get updated?

 

If you plug in an external keyboard, does it make a difference?

 

What is your language setting set to for your OS?
