[OBD U8] "Complete List of AccuDraw Shortcut Key-ins" is incomplete

  • Hello Tuan, 

    Can you please state us what are the items that you think is missing. I have checked the help doc for MicroStation and both are same. See the attached file. .

  • <Space> isn't documented

    <H,A> documented, but not implemented in OBD U8

    <Q> documented, but does something else in OBD U8

    Just a few examples. Are the shortcuts between MS and OBD meant to be identical? Some can be the same, I agree, but they are 2 different products. 

  • Hi Tuan,

    I just happened to come across this post so wanted to follow up since I was curious about it.   Here is what I see as delivered keyboard shortcuts in MS U15 and OBD U8:

    I've also attached a short video showing results of using the Space Bar, H and Q shortcuts in OBD.  



  • Thanks Steve, it would have been great if the help information is corrected to what's actually delivered with the software. Retraining to use CE isn't easy for the average joe and having wrong help info doesn't really help. 

  • A defect has been filed against CE help. In the meantime I have updated the relevant wiki with more information and a method for sharing a set of MicroStation shortcuts that may be helpful for users who do not use the mechanical shortcut added by OBD:

    UI - AccuDraw Shortcuts

    This also includes a screenshot of the fully expanded shortcuts list.
