i had a similar instance to the one above...
i got called in to my bosses office "i lost my text toolbar, i need to edit some text and i can't find the right button to do it..."
i played along and found this mythical toolbar that i have never used...
i put it on the screen for him, and said "there you go. you do know you can just double click the text these days to change it? i don't know what version you used previously that doesn't allow that, but that feature has been around for years"
similar case for zooming.... he needed to find the right toolbar, press an icon, then type X to zoom out, click the same button, type w, and click the corners of where he thinks he needs to look... then do it again when its wrong... the scroll button zooms in and out when you roll it, and zooms all the way out instantly on double click...
he uses the pan button to move around things, then has to esc to stop panning, and go back into whatever he was doing... you just hold the scroll down and pan around...
its been this way since i learnt cad back in 2000.... :banghead:
