Note: not all functions are available in the Mac versions and some custom commands (macros) may not work in AutoCAD/LT for Mac. If you want to transfer your custom commands or macros from PC to Mac, you need to do this manually with the CUI editor. You cannot import personal CUI file from PC to Mac. Unfortunately there is no such feature in AutoCAD for Mac.

I want to import my custom CUIx file from AutoCAD for Windows to the MAC version, how do I do that?.

There are also many YouTube video tutorials and how-tos that can help you learn the program. There are two publications: Mastering AutoCAD for MAC and One Step At A Time, plus an AutoCAD 2015 For Interior Designers book that tries to straddle both Windows and Mac versions.

Is there an AutoCAD/LT for MAC book to learn the program?.

And it requires no special effort or any change.

Will I be able to share DWG and DXF files between the Windows and Mac versions of AutoCAD?.

All UI elements could be either floating or docked to the sides of the screen (Tool Sets to the left or to the right: Layers, Properties, Content, References, Projects, Materials palettes to the left or to the right side Command window and Status Bar to the bottom side). All toolbars are accumulated in Tool Sets palette with the ability to switch between tabs with sets of icons.

They chose not to implement a Microsoft Windows interface for this new variant: they probably still remember the backlash when, back in the day, AutoCAD for DOS' interface was used on Mac, Unix and Sun workstations much to the dismay of core users of those systems. The MAC version of AutoCAD/LT has an Apple-base user interface that reflects Autodesk's complete rewrite of the program from the ground up.

Are you curious about the MAC version of AutoCAD/LT? Or a current user looking for basic answers? This blog post will attempt to answer the most common questions you might have about this Apple OS based software (This is not an April Fools post).
