[@coldwarveteran4239]

Your videos are the best. I needed to learn AutoCAD basics to help on a couple of projects for work. Your tutorials are quick, to the point and easy to understand. Other sites take 30+ minutes and I still don’t understand. Thank you for all your help.

[@Nicheenergy]

Thanks... saved me this morning in work... did not have a clue how to get the ribbon bar back

[@gungorbenturk2543]

Thank you very much Brandon, you have been very very helpful to me as the ribbon on the screen had somehow disappeared but then I watched your video and found that just by writing RIBBON on the command line I was able to bring back the Ribbon, Thank you !

[@AylaEverdeen]

You're an angel from heaven!

[@chekinger7]

Thank you so much for making this tutorial. I was struggling with the Array Selection Ribbon/Dialogue box. Just toggled between 3D and Drafting workspace and the reset brought the ribbon back!

Hi Brandon, thanks for your content, it has proved very useful in the past. I'm hoping you can help me with a question based on missing toolbars. I'm not aware of the official name but the bar just below the main ribbon showing the tabs for the individual open documents has disappeared. Can you help me get it back?

How do you make a second row of layout tabs?

[@Cadintentions]

I don't believe we can make a second row/stack layout tabs, but you can have basically as many as you want. Once there are more than can be seen in the row, two small down arrows will apear on the left of the tabs. By clicking on them you can then select and browse the additional layout tabs that are not visible.

[@ogarsunday7352]

My ribbon has tabs that I have to open to get to the commands. So to draw a line I have to open the draw tab then choose line, polyline etc... I had what yours shows. Where did it go?

[@coasttal123]

somehow i deleted or turned off the hatch group from my ribbon. How do I get that back?

[@robertmrivera]

I used to have tabs for model space and paper space that I could easily switch between. Now it is gone for some reason, and I have to type in TILEMODE to switch between the two. Any suggestions?

[@robertmrivera]

[@juliesmith7993]

Thanks for making your videos SHORT AND SWEET AND INFORMATIVE! So many other instructional videos are way too long, and the person adds too many irrelevant words. Your videos are my go-to before killing people.
Just kidding.
Brandon for the win!
