AutoCAD is a great example of something that gives both options.
New users tend to get really involved with the buttons, but gradually shift to full text control over years.
Obviously in CAD sometimes you cannot enter coordinates and must grab the mouse... but it's still faster if you minimize use of the mouse.
- gcr 3y agoI've found Fusion 360 to be highly mouse-driven with frustratingly few keyboard shortcuts available. It feels borderline unusable without having one hand on the mouse at all times to select various operations, and the faux-pie menus are too contextual to be a great replacement. Tools like Plasticity CAD¹ or Blender feel way more keyboard-friendly in this space. [1]: https://www.plasticity.xyz/ https://www.plasticity.xyz/
