Welcome to the Autodesk Forums!

 

Hi Lisa,

 

1/ Ribbon is not available in AutoCAD for Mac

 

2/ You need to clear check mark "Use Shift key to add selection" in the "Cursor & Selection" tab of AutoCAD Preferences window (menu "AutoCAD LT 2015" -> Preferences

 

3/ You can accomplish this the same way as in PC version. Clear all running object snaps on the "Object Snaps" tab of AutoCAD "Drafting Settings" window (menu Tools -> "Drafting Settings"). than choose one of the following methods:

   - use keyboard shortcuts NEA, END, MID, etc. when AutoCAD asks you to pick point

   - use right click context menu "Snap overrides" which is available inside most of drafting/editing commands

   - use OSNAP context menu inside drafting/editing command - you can activate it with Shift+right click or with middle click (if the system variable MBUTTONPAN=0)

   - create custom buttons for object snaps on Tool Sets palette and use them when you need

 

4/ About manual - I think you can try this:

AutoCAD 2015 and new AutoCAD 2016 which is available now on PC both use 2013 DWG format. There is no newer than 2013 DWG format.

When you start to make selection you just need to pick two points- at the he first an at the second corner, you don't need to drag mouse with pick button pressed.
