I use the acaddoc.lsp file to automatically load over 240 such keyboard shortcuts for every drawing. Most of them originated with a few lisp routines I picked up here at Cadalyst! Advantages: 1. Buttons move, but the keyboard does not change. The .lsp file can be very portable, and does not muck with the CUI (as in using custom buttons). 2. You do not have to move the pointer away from where you are working. 3. My primary reason is that the .pgp file does not allow command combinations, like Zoom | Extents. For instance, I have two commands "du" and "au" for switching several settings from decimal units to architectural units and back. see below for that code. 4. My other primary reason is that I HATE pull-down, slide over, go down again . . . menus. (maybe the Ribbon fixed that, but I'm stuck in acad 2004) I'll take a couple of keystrokes over menus any day. Here is the Units code: (defun C:du ( ) (command "units" "2" "6" "1" "5" "0" "n") (princ "Units Set To My Decimal Preferences" )(princ) ) (defun C:au ( ) (command "units" "4" "16" "1" "1" "0" "n") (princ "Units Set To Architectural Preferences" )(princ) ) You can't do that with the .pgp file! To see what all the settings need to be, do the command in the command line and record your selections. I hear there is a macro recorder in the newer acad versions, but that may only work for button creation. Thanks for sharing. Frank
