AlfaCAD offers a "Help" feature
that is available all the time you draw, except when a dialog window
is open, e.g. for printing, plotting, editing layer parameters,
selecting an object color, etc. But everywhere else, also while
running another function, "Help" in the form of a long menu
shows all the function keys, with a comment on what function each of
them initiates.
There is also the ability to select any function
directly from the menu to demonstrate how each key or combination of
keys works.It is not just a demonstration, each function is
performed, as long as the drawing phase allows the function to work
(e.g. selecting a specific point with the pointfinder only works when
any object is drawn; if no drawing function has been previously
selected, this pointfinder shortcut option will not work).
Access to the “Help” function it with {F1} or {F12} keys.
The “Help” menu contains over 70 keys or
key combinations, divided for for sections:
