Customize Commands
Commands in the Customize dialog box are used to define custom macros
which are used to start standard and custom commands which can be executed
from the command prompt in AutoCAD for Mac.
Overview of Commands
You can easily create, edit, and reuse commands. The Commands tab of the
Customize dialog box allows you to create and modify existing commands
that can then be added to a user interface element.
When you change the properties of a command in the Commands list, the
properties of the command are changed everywhere the command is
referenced. Each property of a command in the Commands list controls which
actions are taken when the command is used and how the command looks
when added to a user interface element.
