How to Maintain the Attributes Value when Exploding Block attributes is a nice tool to have. We can use it to preserve text style and size as annotation block. Drawing title and title block is a good example. The problem is when we need it explode it somehow, we will loose any information we put in the attribute. To preserve the values, do not use explode. Use BURST instead.

Find Commands by Tabbing

Engineering Technician  Hayden Clarke  sent a tip that helps users of AutoCAD and its verticals to find commands quickly through keyboard entry. "I recently discovered tabbing to find that command that you've been thinking about, but can’t quite remember. Quite often, you may remember the first couple of letters for a command but cannot remember the rest for the life of you. The trick is to type the first few letters you know, then press the Tab button. This will cycle through all the commands beginning with the letters you inputted. When you find the one you're looking for, simply press Enter. "For example, if I type REG in the Command line and start pushing Tab, the following will appear: REG…REGEN…REGEN3…REGENALL…REGENAUTO…REGENMODE…REGION…etc. It makes remembering commands that much easier — but only if you remember this one." http://cadtips.cadalyst.com/pgp-file/find-commands-tabbing
