Keyboard Shortcuts have suddenly stopped working, is there a setting to turn them off and on? accudraw short keys are the only shortkeys that are working
pressing spacebar and q is not working
Please help!
It is AECOsim Building Designer CONNECT Edition Update 3 - Version 10.03.00.40
Choose File > Settings > User > Keyboard Shortcuts. Does the list display populated as you'd expect?
You can also check if the file defined by MS_KEYBOARDSHORTCUTS exists - that would typically mean user keyboard shortcuts could be overriding the defaults.
this is what pops up for me, i've only ever used the default keyboard shortcuts and haven't attempted to create other ones
Interesting... it does look exactly like mine. As a "shotgun" approach, try renaming your prefs folder (C:\Users\your.name\AppData\Local\Bentley\AECOsimBuildingDesigner\10.0.0\prefs) and then restart AECOsim. Any change?

It worked, thank you!
Great! I am glad to hear that.
Eric, you may want to try the same step.
Still is occuring in [CE 16.3] that seems to be still a bug in the functionality of the dialog to edit the Keyboard Shortcuts
The problem occured to me after editing something foolish and then using the X to delete that entriy in the dialog.
the XML file Personal.KeyboardShortcuts.xml seems to be not updated correctly. It still contains the erronous entries that I had tried to delete
