It’s the strangest thing. I have a few accudraw shortcut don’t work when you first open a drawing. For example I have dv as a accudraw shortcut for DIMCREATE linear. But after I use the icon the first time I open a drawing, from then on the accudraw keyin DV works just fine. Strange, same thing happens for a few other dimensioning shortcuts, also happens with my check spelling accudraw shortcut PL.
Any idea what that would happen? thanks
When a file is opened it may be that accudraw dialog does not have focus.
check the status bar when a file is opened to see which dialog has focus:

it could be that the mdl apps that load those keyin weren't loaded when you first run Microstation. mdl l dimcreate will load the mdl app that register the dimcreate keyins.
