Combine All the Most Basic Autocad Commands: Basic Cad Command

The following guide provides a clear overview of Basic cad command, with the most relevant background, details, and practical takeaways.

What is AutoCAD? AutoCAD is CAD application software for drawing (creating) technical drawings with 2D vectors or 3D surfaces, developed by Autodesk Group. With the first version released in late 1982, AutoCAD was one of the first technical drawing programs that ran on personal computers, especially IBM computers. In contrast, much of the technical drawing software of this time is used on graphics terminals connected to main computers or workstations. Here are the most basic commands in Auto CAD.

To Create a Shortcut for a Certain Command, We Do the Following:

Go to the Tool menu and select Customize Edit program parameters (here you will see the shortcut list).

Example: COPY command: CO / CP command now wants to change another Word: OC / PC for example (note that it cannot coincide with the existing command), find the COPY command LINE in the list of CO / CP delete instead OP / PC then Save at Command command: type REINIT SELECT pgp FILE OK

Now you type OC / PC as the copy command.
