    From what I understood, the OP was looking to associate new shortcuts to some Osnap modes to be easier to call them.

    That's right I really like to change the shotcuts for the OSNAP modes so that the alias can be accesible with only the left hand when i want an OSNAP override. as you may guess, I'm not a fan of ribbons and toolbar.

    mtp is way across the keyboard shift and right click is okay but i think the best is to assign it on the function keys especially f1.When you thought you hit esc key but theres a sudden pop up help window on your screen it would also be great if you can assign on "~ key" also... i haven't tried that ",)

    To each their own; I personally find it to take less time to type the built-in transparent OSNAPS than the time required to code each of my own custom OSNAP commands especially to only save one key-stroke (using the earlier example: END vs. EE).

    ** Edit - Then there's also the issue of deploying these customizations to others, if this is not part of the Enterprise setup it could cause potential issues for work sharing, etc..

    Separately, you may also find Gile's Custom OSNAPs to be useful (I know I do!).

    We also _used to_ have a Ctrl + Right Click shortcut menu for double-OSNAPs, but Civil 3D has taken over the Ctrl Key OOTB, which has also prevented Managed Hotkeys from working properly as well. I think I might just have to modify the Shift + Right Click shortcut menu. Just haven't had the time to do so yet. *kicks dirt*

    MTP (Mid Between 2 Points) is available in the Shift+Right-Click menu since at least AutoCAD 2008 AFAIK.
