Really Bentley, are you just changing things for change's sake?
Whenever I press an accudraw shortcut I am used to seeing a little green text text pop-up with a black background confirming the command so where has this gone?
It's a bit disconcerting not seeing this any more so why was this feature removed??
For those not aware of what I am referring to:
I have Brien, just don't get the change in the first place. When you're going through major changes to builds like this it's just another thing that has to be done.

The UX folks considered the space bar too valuable to restrict to a polar/rectangular toggle for AccuDraw and wanted to leverage such an accessible key for the new ribbon group popup. So changing the AccuDraw mode was moved to M, and point, multiple input, PM.
The ribbon group popup is pretty handy and important for keyboard access to the ribbon.
So the UX folks haven't used this software for 20 years...The space bar was pretty valuable for switching Accudraw mode. Does "O" still set the Accudraw origin? Does <Enter> still lock the axis? Is there documentation anywhere for what the "new" Accudraw shortcuts are?
The potential drop in production is another of many reasons that we are reticent to switch to Connect. It's not the biggest reason, but it's a known drawback.

You can open the shortcuts dialog and see all the current shortcuts.
