Ok, V9 to X2

[Gordon Dawson]

When X came out, I really disliked it and did not ever use it. I know if I don't make the transition soon, I am gonna be too far behind; X2 upgrade is here so I am going to install it.

 

What advice do you guys have for me. I use mill level 1.

 

Is there a way to still use key strokes instead of icons?

I would suggest going ove this MCAMX2_GettingStartedGuide.pdf

 

and this

 

MCAMX2_Transition_Guide.pdf

 

and this

 

V92XFunctions.pdf

 

All available in the documentation folder in your X2 install

 

And oh yeah, recalibrate your thinking you'll need to

 

There are power keys available and you can set keystrokes, you will not get all of the keystrokes but you can get many of them.

 

IMO, forgetthem and move into the GUI.

 

You might use keys for somethings things but you'll be better off if you move away from total reliance on them.

 

Good Luck

I use at least 80% key strocks I would say. Allot of them are there just few here and there that are not..

But jump in the water is nice once you get past the initial chill.
