Re: LPFM (brings back fond (?) memories of V2 and V3)

If you are really interested in an auxiliary keyboard for V5, (and it makes sense to me in a productive environment--I had one for AutoCAD several years ago), you might be better off to find a Win-compatible programmable keyboard.

When I become more familiar with what I need in V5, I will try software macro programs like:
and keep the selection GUI on my second monitor.

Another possibility exists, although I haven't seen any information on this yet--1 or more additional V5 custom programmable pull-down menus. I used this technique quite productively in V4, and also had an extensive custom right-click menu developed for AutoCAD.

Anybody know how to access the programmability of the V5 pull-down menu system?
 
We are working with a client that wants to use the lighted Function Program Keyboard. We have a surplus of the keyboards available. Let me know if you are interested.
I will forward any info that I get on V5 Catia use with a PC. Do you find that you get higher productivity with these keyboards?
