AutoCAD CORNER When using EZ-Plant Software,I have found and use many AutoCAD short cut keys or abbeviations that are very convenient to use. The shortcut keys listed below, are the most often used short cuts when using EZ-Plant Software.A more complete list of AutoCAD Shortcuts can be found in the C:drive acad.pgp file. PLEASE see the following list:

NOTE: The following command aliases have been discontinued in AutoCAD 2004- DDATTE, ATTEDIT This command is mentioned in our helpfile. There have been other aliases that have been discontinued, see acad.pgp file
Just a few notes to all our users that EZ-Plant Software is now compatible with AutoCAD 2006 and 2007. We have developed a small patch file that makes EZ-Plant workable for these versions. See our Web site for downloadable files. Also, please note that EZ-Plant Software is diligently working on adding more than 500 additional new plants to our database. The total databases for EZ-PLANT will exceed 1300 plants. The costs that are included in the new database is pricing for 2006. Any questions, please contact dave@ez-plant.com.
I am the owner and original developer of EZ-Plant Software. I came up with the idea because of a need to use a software that worked for me and would produce the necessary results that I wanted to achieve. It has been a labor of love but I really enjoy helping people design and provide them a tool that produces quick and easy to read Landscape plans. If anyone wants to contact me or discuss our product, I am always available to converse by phone or email.
My plan is to make this an operational Blog so that me and my clients can use it as a great interface to correspond and communicate with each other. We plan to place an AutoCAD Corner to give you AutoCAD tips in the use with EZ-PLant Software.For the over 12 years I have been using this program, I have come up with many tips and techniques that I want to share with the users. Please help by starting a dialog and present any comments you may have.
Eventually I would like to place a sharers group of new plants database that everyone that has EZ-Plant can share.
