Enhanced Features and Benefits

Overview of new features Fields, Tables, Sheet Set Manager, Dynamic Input, Dynamic Blocks and much, much more! Then, come back for classes outlined below that offer a more-detailed look at real-world applications of each feature.

Fields and Tables

The Field command simplifies the task of creating, placing, and editing text w/ changes automatically updated within a drawing. The Table command allows AutoCAD users to create forms w/ columns, rows and headers.

Sheet Sets and Sheet Set Manager — Part 1

The Sheet Set Manager creates links to drawings called "sheets", similar to xrefs. Sheets can be organized and easily updated adding or removing sheets from a set, and adjusting page numbers and sheet index information effortlessly

Sheet Sets and Sheet Set Manager – Part 2

Using Sheet Views, Fields, and Named Views, users will be able to automatically place and update reference tags, callouts, and labels throughout an entire sheet set. Changes to drawing files are automatically reflected in all views, insuring that your sheet sets are always up-to-date.

Sharing and Archiving

Through the use of the Sheet Set Manager, plotting a complete set of drawings is done without the effort of tracking down where the individual files reside. You can easily share Sheet Sets by creating one electronic transmittal package, allowing the easy plotting of an entire set of drawings while you continue working. In addition, maintaining archive project documents can now be done automatically, allowing you to easily revisit project milestones.

Enhanced Tool Palettes

Tool Palettes are more versatile than Toolbars, you can create / copy tool groups, blocks, macros, LISP and all the properties associated with the tool (layer, color, etc) are retained When you use tools from this palette it brings its properties with it. If the layer doesn’t exist it creates it!

Layer Manager

New Layer Manager features allow you to define groups of layers for easily management With Layer Filters you can quickly adjust layer settings and change layer properties for many layers at a time.

Dynamic Input

Now with the 'Heads Up Display' you can break the habit of looking at the command line. The command prompts and input info are attached to the cursor. So you don’t have to take your eye off your work.

Dynamic Blocks

By attaching parameters and actions to grips in dynamic blocks you increase the flexibility of a single block. Now instead of needing different blocks for different size doors or windows you have the ability to stretch, flip, align, rotate and /or list options to choose from, all contained within the same block definition.
