Turn off keyboard shortcuts?

Post by Jim_in_PA »

A number of times, something has inadvertently gotten "nudged" via an accidental keystroke sequence, moving a toolpath slightly and not noticed until after the fact when a workpiece is affected. Since I generally do not even use keyboard shortcuts in Aspire (complicated as I bounce between my Mac in the house/office and the Windoz machine attached to my CNC) is there a way to disable some or all of them? I'm sure this is a long-shot, but I have to ask to cover all bases. An incident this week almost cost me a bundle of money but was fortunately recoverable through some careful craftsmanship and use of hand tools. Thanks in advance!

No there isn't. You can use the lock facility on the layers to prevent any accidental movement if that helps any.

Thanks, Adrian. I may very well leverage the layer lock feature once I get something dialed in. Excellent suggestion!
