Issue:

In ZWCAD, the shortcut keys are not working.

For example, the input command [L] is no longer the default command "LINE", but other commands, such as "LASTANGLE". How to recover shortcut keys?

Causes:

The shortcut keys are not working, which may be due to the following factors:

  1. The ZWCAD.pgp shortcut file is not loaded successfully;
  2. The ZWCAD.pgp shortcut file in the user directory is corrupted or encrypted.

Solution:

Method 1:

  • Enter the command [REINIT], click “OK” to reload the ZWCAD.pgp file.

Method 2:

  • Click on the menu [Tools →  Customize →  Command Alias Editor] (or enter the command [ALIASEDIT]) to see if the content of the shortcut definition is normal. If it is abnormal you can click [Reset] to restore it.

Method 3:

  • Enter the command [OPTIONS] to open the [Options] dialog box, in [File →  Support File Search Path], we can see the "Support File Search Path" of ZWCAD.

    Check whether the ZWCAD.pgp file is encrypted or corrupted: open the ZWCAD.pgp file with “Notepad”, if it appears garbled, it is corrupted or encrypted.
    If the ZWCAD.pgp file is encrypted, please decrypt the file and restart the ZWCAD.
    If the ZWCAD.pgp file is corrupted, delete it and restart the ZWCAD, it will generate the default ZWCAD.pgp file to restore the shortcut keys.
