Command Macros Tool Pallette  

Have you ever had to perform the same 2-3 commands over and over and over……?  For example, likely after you purge, you save.  Or maybe you’re working on a project that requires you to copy, move and rotate an object multiple times in a row.  AutoCAD 2023 not only allows you to create and save these commands as one, but even suggests them for you once you do them repeatedly.

COMMAND MACROS Tool Pallette

Enter Command Macros.  This tool pallette has two tabs; the Saved tab and the Insights tab.  The Insights tab is based on the frequency you use a string of commands.  That data is collected and used to create the macros (string of commands made into one command) and then and delivered to your insights tab within the Command Macros pallette.  Below is what the Command Macros tool pallet might look light if you used those commands all in a row frequently (Zoom Save Close, Multiple Purge, etc.).

If you think the suggested Macro might be useful on a regular basis, you can save it on the Saved tab of this tool pallette.  If you need that string of commands in the future, you’ll simply select that command within this tool pallet; time saving tool for the win!

If you expand the suggested commands you’ll see the macro command and if you’re up on macros you can edit or copy part to fit your needs, before you save it.

New Suggestions Available

You’ll see this iconpop up, along with the traditional balloon notification seen below, when there are new Command Macros available.
