Using AutoCAD Commands
ProStructures includes a set of key-ins that let you use the AutoCAD command syntax to set system variables and initiate commands. These key-ins give users who are familiar with AutoCAD the option of using either AutoCAD or ProStructures syntax.
You can enter the AutoCAD commands and system variables in three ways:
- Key in the DWG prefix, then the AutoCAD command.
- Key in the command prefix as defined by the configuration variable MS_DWG_COMMANDPREFIX, then the AutoCAD command. The default prefix is the backslash character (\).
- Key in the command prefix, then a command alias as defined in a PGP file.
The table lists examples of AutoCAD commands and equivalent ProStructures key-ins.
