With
DesignCenter, you can organize access to drawings, blocks, hatches, and
other drawing content. You can drag content from any source drawing to
your current drawing. You can drag drawings, blocks, and hatches
to a tool palette. Source drawings can be on your computer, on a
network location, or on a website. In addition, if you have multiple
drawings open, you can use DesignCenter to streamline your drawing
process by copying and pasting other content, such as layer definitions,
layouts, and text styles between drawings.
With DesignCenter, you
can
- Browse for drawing content such as drawings
or symbol libraries on your computer, on a networked drive, and
on a web page
- View definition tables for named objects
such as blocks and layers in any drawing file and then insert, attach,
or copy and paste the definitions into the current drawing
- Update (redefine) a block definition
- Create shortcuts to drawings, folders,
and Internet locations that you access frequently
- Add content such as xrefs, blocks, and
hatches to a drawing
- Open drawing files in a new window
- Drag drawings, blocks, and hatches to
a tool palette for convenient access
