How do I Customize a pgp file?

The HyDraw.pgp file is located at C:\Program Files\VEST\HyDraw CAD<version>\Support

You can open the pgp file with notepad and add the shortcut/alias for any of the HyDraw commands.

After you edit the pgp file with required aliases for HyDraw commands, save it.

Type in “REINIT” to initiate the new pgp inside HyDraw CAD.

Thereafter, you should be able to use the new shortcuts.

      Below you find an example of how the shortcuts are defined.

       

      If you don't know a command name, you can read it from the command line once you run it from the ribbon.
