BricsCAD and AutoHotKey
Hi all,
I'm a BricsCAD user for around 3 years now and have never looked back since swapping from AutoCAD and Solidworks. In the past year or so, I have been experimenting with setting up scripts and macros that can be run via AutoHotKey to carry out a command or string of commands with the press of a single keyboard or mouse button (Logitech MX Master at the moment). For example, when I hit my tab key it runs the following without any further input other than the click:
1) UCS command
2) Sets the Entity command
3) Waits for me to click on the chosen line/entity
4) Rotates my UCS to this direction
This single script I use probably 100 times a day during all my setting out around structures, couldn't imagine working without it now! I am looking to start compiling all the random scripts I have up into a library for people to download if they are of any use, and was hoping other people had some of their common used command strings that they would love to be automated? The scripts themselves are quite straightforward to make once you understand AHK, and I'm always keen to see other peoples workflows!
Thanks all,
Rory
