Here's someone using their head.

The result isn't accomplished by using the arc command, picking end point of line, point on curve, other end point of line?

If you wanted to do it manually in the mean time, draw a circle through the three points and trim it.

As I recall I was the first to respond to this post and very soon after you posted it, 9 days ago. Pity you didn't consider investigating it then. The important thing is that you finally did, glad you like using it, it is much quicker than having to deepdive into the .pgp customization area, and can be done on the fly, without leaving your drawing.

As the saying goes, "third times the charm", which is why I kept suggesting it. Single key shortcalls are great, with multiple hit variations. When you use ALIASEDIT to define your personal shortcall preferences they are entered into the bottom most section of your .PGP. Once they are there, they will migrate if you go to a newer version. I trust that you have a SAVED version of your .PGP file somewhere other than in the software, on a flashdrive or elsewhere on your computer, or in your Email inbox folder. That makes it easy to share with other team members or friends, and to access from wherever you are via your email. Have to jump on somebody elses rig to do a little work? MAKE SURE YOU SAVE THEIR CURRENT .pgp before reading yours onto the machine, in the bottom of the SYSVDLG box. Once you are through using that machine make sure you switch the .PGP file back to their original one, which you saved earlier. Better to work Smart than Hard.

This probably doesn't help, but how about getting slightly creative with your shortcuts instead of using Ctrl + ? For Copy you could just use two letters CN (copy normal) for Copy with basepoint use CB and so on, both these shortcuts are on the same row on the keyboard so not really a stretch. Neither of them are being used by anything else and you can leave Ctrl + C alone. I use 2 for the Distance command as it asks for 2 points. Just saying.

R14 and 2000 are both solid versions, and each appeals to me in it's own way. In my experience, R14 is rock-solid and does not crash for any reason. But I will give a slight edge to 2000 for overall performance and is far and away the fastest-running AutoCAD ever created. Even the modern version on the most insane machine lags behind 2000. 2000 did have some nifty improvements, but nothing very game changing for me. I can produce drawings just as quickly in R14.

I run my AutoCAD 2000i on Windows 10 at home with no problems as of yet.

Did somebody mention about the command BLOCK..?

Start a new Standard(mm).ipt part file. the *.ipt file extension stands for Inventor Part. If you somehow get inch units rather than mm - don't worry about it for now. Expand the Origin folder in the feature browser and right click on Center Point and select Visibility.

When I started using AutoCAD, I found that the shortcuts were not as I would like (for me AutoCAD is a foreign language programme), so I re-assigned shortcuts to what I thought more useable. However in those days a new version of AutoCAD required retyping the whole lot again and again. I got fed up with that and learned to use the default settings. If you do customise AutoCAD, then you will be dumbfounded when you try to use a version which is not to your usage. So, learn to use the defaults. Your life will be much easier.
