unable to modify pgp - autocad LT 2016 mac

Anonymous · ‎04-10-2019

Dear all,

I wanted to change some shortcuts for some commands, entering the pgp-file, but the changes didn't seem to function.

for example: I changed the shortcut for copy 'CO' into 'Z', but the zoom function still appeared when I entered 'Z' into the command tool.

Now I have the double trouble that I cannot enter the PGP file anymore!

I tried < tools <customize< edit command aliases - or ALIASEDIT in the command

Somebody recognise the problem?

thanks

Did you remove the Z alias form ZOOM ? I beleive I remember that the last shortcut is the one to be used.

Did you, at least, restart AutoCAD after it is done ?

There must be no reason for the fact that you can't open the pgp file. I'm on PC and can not help.

thank you for the respons,

I didn't remove the ZOOM - Z. This could be the solution,
but I'm still dealing with the problem that I can't reopen the PGP.

also I tried to type REINIT in the command bar, to reset what I ve done.
but it doesn't seem to exist on my autocad mac?

Hi

Have you tried to find and edit PGP file, as described here:
https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/autocad-for-mac-forum/unable-to-modify-pgp-autocad-lt-2016-mac/m-p/87...

"The default PGP file can also be opened by launching Finder, pressing and holding Option, and clicking Go Library. In the Finder window, navigate to Application Support/Autodesk/Roaming/<product name>/<version>/<language>/Support and double-click acad.pgp (or acadlt.pgp for AutoCAD LT) to edit the file. If prompted for an application to use, select TextEdit."
