New Guy here looking for AutoCad users using Razers

I've been using a Razer keypad since back when it was a Nostromo N52 for programming AutoCad commands that I can access with my left hand while my right hand controls the mouse.

I was just wondering if anyone else has discovered this kind of use for the N52 or whatever it's called these days or possibly, what other Razer products you use for AutoCad, Revit, NavisWorks..

I've got 8 different setups for the keypad itself, using the thumbwheel to switch between the setups. I've also got little pictures stuck all over my computer deck that show things like the Red menu and a graphic layout of the keypad it it's using (red) as an example and what commands I have assigned to that particular color of keypad. The pictures are drawn just like the layout of the keypad buttons.

Here's an example of how I have one laid out. It's for my Green Menu.

ESC Line ROTATE Nea DEL

DDEdit XT Move Erase Copy

F0 Ext BH TR SA

That's just one layout and I program all the keys to type in those commands, then hit return after it.

For a simple example, look at Rotate. That would be the D3 button on my pad, I click on it, it types in Rotate on my AutoCad Commandline, and hits a return, then all I have to do is select what I want to rotate, pick the end point (which anchors that end, then pick the second end point, move it where I want, and hit my 15 key for return.

So basically, I hit one key, click the object, select the end to rotate from, the end that's rotating, then enter to stop the command.. With my N52, it takes 1 keypad click to type in "rotate, <", then I make two picks, and hit the 15 key.

Did that one save me a lot of typing with one hand (since my other hand is always on my mouse), maybe not that many but, figure I do several hundred commands in a day, each one needing an average of 5 -10 keypad buttons, or I can do it with my N52 with maybe 3 or 4 buttons, all located under my left hand (no searching on the keyboard, undoing wrong letters, typing in the correct letters.. You can easily see how much time is saved.
