AutoCAD 2000? There was no CUI file. That version used menu files.
There were as follows: .MNU Template menu file in ASCII text format. .MNS Menu source file generated by AutoCAD from the .MNU file. .MNC Binary file compiled by AutoCAD from the .MNS file. This is the file that is loaded. .MNR Binary file containing bitmaps. .MNL Menu support file containing AutoLISP code required by menu. It is the .MNU file you would have to edit. Specifically you would have to make your edits to the section of the ASCII file labeled as ***Buttons and/or ***Aux. Got all that? The .MNU file can be opened and edited using Notepad. Keep a virgin copy of the file just in case you screw up for backup purposes. Edited by John Connor - 18.Apr.2012 at 20:04 |

Yes, it is possible.
Most mouse drivers allow to assign/map a button to a keybord key or key combination (e.g. Alt+F4). And in AutoCAD (in the CUI dialog) you can assign hotkeys to commands and macros.

Hi everyone,
Is it possible to, for example: Bind a button on my mouse or a keyboard key as a hotkey to enable the poly-line? If so how do I this ? I am using Autocad 2000 at work Thanks for your time. Darrell Edited by autocadNEWBIE - 18.Apr.2012 at 12:43 |
