Another function of the “Command Line” which may be overlooked is the “AutoCorrect” option. This allows a misspelling of a command to be related to an actual AutoCAD command that can be saved, so if the same misspelling is entered, it will activate the related command.
In the example below, the user has incorrectly typed, “LINM” instead of “LINE”, AutoCAD displays commands that may be a possible match to the typo error.
The user can now select the required command from the list displayed at the “Command Line”, as shown in Figure 1.
If the user makes the same typo error three times, AutoCAD will associate the typed error with the actual command, now when the type error is entered in the “Command Line”, the actual command will appear in brackets behind the type error, as shown in Figure 2.
AutoCAD will now associate the type error “LINM” with the command “LINE”.
The user can also edit the “AutoCorrectUserDB.pgp” file using “Notebook” to add type in errors and associate those type errors with actual AutoCAD commands.
To open and edit the “AutoCorrect” file, select “Edit AutoCorrect List” from the “Customisation” panel of the “Manage” tab in the ribbon menu, as shown in Figure 3.
The previously generated typo has been recognised and now exists in the AutoCorrect file, as shown in Figure 4.
To add a type error and associate it to a command, add the type error to the list, for example (CURCLE) followed by a comma, (,) and a space, enter an Asterisk (*), then the command (CIRCLE), which will be associated to the typo, as shown in Figure 5.
