Found a cool one today.
Copy a line over and type 6" to set the distance. Then type *10 to array it 10 times.
What I already knew was that you can type *8 or *4 or whatever to adjust the number of arrayed items.
However I just found out that if you type 3" or 10" it will keep your array but adjust the spacing. Pretty sweet!

Duh!
That is sweet!
The manual doesn't even mention this!

It even works with circular arrays - just type in the angle in degrees

I learned that just a couple months ago from Dave R at a local meetup

Shift + Eraser to smooth...
I know that this has always been there, but I just discovered it recently (Duh!) thanks to another thread here... I cannot tell you how many times I have tweaked, and redone a push/pull or follow me command just to minimize the number of lines on a solid!
Ah... feels good to share my stupidity!

Ctrl+ eraser is to smooth. Shift+eraser is to hide.

-
-
Ctrl+Erase = Soft+Smooth
Shift+Erase = Hide
Ctrl+Shift+Erase = Un-soft+Smooth (But not Unhide!) -

Use 'Entity Info' to manipulate selected edges' hidden/soft/smooth status OR alternatively use the context-menu 'Unhide' [or 'Hide']... -

In this case... several new things.

You've lost me now...I usually type in x(number) not *(number). But how do I get back to degrees... how does one type 'degrees'! ACAD is 'dd%d' but what is SU?
