Escape/Cancel on a Toolbar

[viciouspossum]

I just made a custom toolbar with an icon that allows me to reset my OSNAPS, since a previous employee made blocks that changes them all around. While I'm at it, I'd like to figure out how to make an ESC key button on a toolbar, mostly for at home use when I don't want to use my keyboard, and don't want to program a mouse button for the deselect. I can put the on-screen keyboard on, and put it in the bottom right corner so just the esc shows, but I'd really like to just have a toolbar icon for it. Once something is selected, my right-click menu doesn't have a cancel anymore. Thanks.

Just add another button on your custom toolbar and
the macro for the new "Cancel" button will simply be:
^C^C

If you are using autocad 2006 then via the CUI you can
add a Cancel command to your button or use the same
macro code above.

^C^C doesn't work most of the time.
Use this instead:

^C^C$M=$(if,$(getvar,cmdactive),,_select ;)_ALL_^C^Credraw
