Command Alias & ai_molc

[BSS]

Trying to find a place where I can edit the text commands (would like to
change the command LTSCALE to LTS for example) can seem to find the file
that controls this.

Also is there such a command as ai_molc in Autodesk this allows you to pick
and object to become current, it is much faster then scrolling thru all the
layers to pick.

Lastly, I keep seeing places where I can turn on/off object grouping, but no
place to create an object group! Where is this hiding.

If you are looking to set command aliases, you are not supposed to be able
to do this in Carlson Survey.
There is however make a work-around for this.
You need to make an alias file called star.pgp and put it in the same
directory as star.exe
The contents and formatting of this file must be the same the standard
autocad pgp file.
Give it a go.

Thankyou Thankyou Thankyou!

Yes that worked, I did have to figgure out that you are not running
Carlson 2006 and "star.pgp" was renamed to "surv.pgp" but it worked
great... HOWEVER!!!!!!

Let it be known that we had a previous intall of Acad Land Desktop on
the machnines.. I reacaintly had to replace a Hard drive and reinstall
everything... but becase we dont use LDD anymore I didnt install it..
and now the pgp file will not work. I commpared the reg. of both
computers to see if I could find a obvious key and thought I found one
but it turned out not to work. So, Im trying to unintstall CS2006 and
install LDD first to see if i can get back this function or not. (I also
found that Carlson uninstalls very dirty!!! ) If I can find a way
around this or if anyone else has a solution it would be greatly apprecated.
