Hello, we have just moved to AutoCAD Mechanical 2017.
I'm trying to update my .PGP but all the allias that I had previously on AutoCAD Mechanical 2012 are not working.
I had :
1 for AMDT_FRONT_LEFT_ISO ( 3D isometric view Left ISO )
2 for AMDT_FRONT_RIGHT_ISO, etc...
These 4 allias are not working, any help will be usefull.

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.

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).
