Escape button Printed From: CAD Forum Category: EN Forum Name: AutoCAD Forum Description: Discussion about AutoCAD and AutoCAD LT, viewers, DWG and DWF formats, Design Review, AutoCAD 360, add-ons URL: https://www.cadforum.cz/forum_en/forum_posts.asp?TID=10675 Printed Date: 17.Apr.2026 at 21:23 Topic: Escape button Posted By: stephenr Subject: Escape button Date Posted: 16.Sep.2014 at 13:33 Having just moved to ACAD LT 2015 (from AutoCAD Architecture 2010) I might have missed a few stages in AutoCad's development but I cannot understand why pressing the escape key doesn't end a command. Is there something that I have failed to tick in Options or is there something even more basic that I am missing here? Or is my software just not performing properly? Regards Stephen ------------- stephen richter Replies: Posted By: John Connor Date Posted: 16.Sep.2014 at 13:40 The ESC key does indeed cancel a command. You don't happen to have Photoshop, or another Adobe program, on this computer do you? ------------- "Humans have a strength that cannot be measured. This is John Connor.

Is there any way I can redress that or should it simply not be happening? Stephen ------------- stephen richter Posted By: John Connor Date Posted: 16.Sep.2014 at 14:21 There are a couple of other possible causes but I think your software is fine.  Don't go nuclear and try an uninstall/reinstall as you'll just be wasting your time. ------------- "Humans have a strength that cannot be measured.

Many thanks for your responses Stephen ------------- stephen richter Posted By: John Connor Date Posted: 16.Sep.2014 at 15:45 That could just be a problem with the setting for DBLCLKEDIT. How many other problems are there?  Might as well list them all. ------------- "Humans have a strength that cannot be measured. This is John Connor.
