[OR] Civil AccuDraw - Looking for the Definitive Guide to Civil AccuDraw

Years ago, when I saw the first release of PowerDraft 95 with the initial release of AccuDraw, I was immediately hooked. Until I got my hands on it. Then, all I ended up was frustrated. Then along come Keith Little at a local users group. Bing, bang, boom - I 'm really hooked now. A few days later, frustration returns. Thankfully, about a year later, Keith returns and after the meeting, I pull him aside and relate my enthusiasm and frustration. I ask him for the secret to getting accustom to AccuDraw and he tells me to keep it open for a full month. And of course, his handouts consisting of key pages from his guides were a critical part of my ultimate success.

So now, here we are many years later and sadly, Keith has gone on to the great CAD room in the sky. So is there some extensive guide to Civil AccuDraw? I am recognizing my current frustration with it as a kind of blast from the past. I find myself trying to use regular shortcuts and end up with regular AccuDraw open along with Civil AccuDraw.

And I could use a tip sheet for working with some of the heads up tools. - Sometimes I manage to lock a setting and cannot seem to unlock it. And sometimes, even after locking it, the values seem to still change.
