shortcut list from v5. anyone have a shortcut list from back then

I've searched the interweb to find the list of short cuts from an old version of microstation. I apparently gave my last one away awhile ago. anyone have access to one????? I was very useful to have it sitting next to you and the commands still work on the newer versions

thanks

    It is quite surprising that anyone is still using MicroStation V5 as this version would not really be supported any more.

    I have installed this version just to figure what you might have been asking about as I believe it was the AccuDraw Shortcuts you wanted.

    Andrew V5 was for dos,  my  Inside  vers 5 book doesnt have accudraw listed ( yes its still on the  shelf here) and I dont  remember using  accudraw in v5.0, maybe I first saw it in M95 or SE   I remember it was in J thought but that was ver 7point something....wow thats over 20 years ago.. we must  have been 15 years old at the  time right? hahaha....

  • Just saying V5 can be quite confusing as the first V5.0 was released in 1993, then V5.5 (95) in 1995, and then V5.7 (SE) in 1997.

    Thats right  but  not what we called them

    V5.0 was known as  V5 Edition and  ran in DOS 

    V5.5  was known as v95 Edition and ran in windows 3.1 and win NT

    V5.7 was known  as SE Edition which was the  screen shot  you  provided and it had accudraw...

    But  I dont think the original poster wanted the accudraw short cuts , I think he meant the  2 or more  letter keys keyboard short cuts like  RF= for attach reference, 

    for the  benefit of others here in the forum  you can find a lot of the  old keyboard command   primatives or short  keys if you search mstn for  55menu.dgn

    then toggle levels on and off to see the  keyins, there is also the old puck or digitiser menus tablet layout with the icons drawn....and the  keyin commands attached..

    I still look it up for simple keyins for scripts and F key  commands from time to time old school works good....

    MicroStation 5.0 was released with Windows NT in 1993.  It ran on a huge range of operating systems: Windows NT, CLIX, MS-DOS and subsequently almost every variety of UNIX (not LINUX, which wasn't invented then), VAX/VMS and even the Apple Macintosh.  See the History of MicroStation.

  • I don't think MicroStation ever ran on VMS unless you count pseudo station.
