@Pat Stanford It makes the system chime in Windows when you use any key combination of Alt+<key> regardless of the Session "Use sound" setting.  It comes from Windows trying to find a top menu item (Alt+F for File as an example) and not being able to since it doesn't exist.  I think it's more a limitation of Windows and less of Vectorworks.  It can get annoying since the only way to really turn it off is to disable the chime at the Windows system level or to mute your sound.

by golly you're right!

 

Alt-J is my most used one so I hadn't noticed the chime using the other keyboard shortcuts.

This is a bigger issue than I'd expected! a systemic issue that should be addressed imo
