These are Mechanical Desktop aliases. You can either use the ViewCube to switch 3D views, or load the simple LSP file VIEWS0.LSP (see Download) - it defines a set of view-switching commands: "0" to "9" (e.g. for your NumPad).

OK Vladimir, I will take a look at it.The aliases that I describe here are not in the "standard" PGP file but I added them ( and others ) after reading the exact syntax when recalling some commands with a right clic after having launch them in the menu or with icons.I did "name" 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 the 4 isometric views and followed with 5 , 6 , 7 , etc with the parametric constrains command.I did this to work with my 2 hands and be abble to switch quickly from the "standard" 2D plan view to the 4 isometric views when working in 3D.

[QUOTE=billy277]hello i want to askhow to check my saved file version?[/QUOTE] Ah, Billy....did you not notice that the topic of this thread is about the acad.pgp file?  It is not good forum practice to hijack a thread started by someone else to post your unrelated topic.DXFOUT > Open file with Notepad > check header information (ex. AC1024).
