  • Autodesk University Online Free access to hundreds of hours of Autodesk training: http://j.mp/esDKvF  
  • Highlight your text and press Ctrl+Shift+U to convert your selection to Uppercase or Ctrl+Shift+L for Lowercase: works with Text and Mtext.
  • Change the Text Case to/from ALL CAPS: Right click the highlighted text and select CHANGE CASE. Works with both MText and Text editors.
  • MULTIPLE command repeats the command-line command that you enter until you press ESC button on keyboard. Abbreviate it and others for speed.

  • Use CHSPACE command to move objects from modelspace to paperspace, or vice-versa, while keeping their relative scale intact.
