not a command; a key: NUM LOCK. Don't think it's powerfull? When the guy next to you ain't looking, push it on his key board. Then sit back and watch the fun. Time the event. It would be interesting to see if the people in your office are as dumb as the ones in my office. The shortest time so far is 30 seconds(and that's my time. )

Dent, you make me laugh many times each day, but I have to say, I am very happy not to work with you ( I would have to kill you)

we have someone in our office who changes all of the adjustments to your chair- that is annoying

Simple, useful:
TR space
and
TR space space.

BTW, I'm polar-ized now. Handier than ortho, esp. placing arrows & notes.

annoying trick

take a screen capture while word or excel is open then save it as a bitmap. Then set there background to use that bitmap and watch the fun begin. See how many times they reboot before they figure that one out.

Did it with the desktop .. desktop to bitmap, bitmap to background, hide desktop icons, and autohide taskbar, putting it on the top of the screen ... funny stuff

UNDEFINE & REDEFINE
Quite usefull for removing the exit command, or other commands that are off limits.
For a little fun, undefine someones zoom and pan commands......make sure you redefine them after you had you laugh.

I hate undefine. Never use it. If ever I find anything undefined, I just .command it.

BTW, I've been using polar since it came out and I don't remember when that was: 2000, 2002? What I miss the most is tracking, not temporary track points, but tracking. That was handy. From and Temporary track points are good to though. I use them all the time.

I used to have a lisp routine that mirrored all the text in a drawing

I don't think anyone besides myself (I could be wrong) uses PDMODE as much as I do...

..and heres a fairly unappreciated Lisp reference (atoms-family 1) or 0.

I don't use it nearly as often as I used to, of course, I'm not doing everything in DOS anymore, but I still find the need to shell every couplefew months.

I have a couple of quickie functions for toggling between PDMODE 3, 0 and 1. Use 'em all the time.
