I recently was hired by an audiovisual consultant as a CAD Manager, part of my responsibilities include setting up standards for our drawings. As of my hiring there was very little consistency between drawings, every drafter kind of just did their own thing. It is my goal to have every station set up the same so that everyone is using the same Dimension Styles, Multileader Styles, and Text Styles to help establish a solid sheet to sheet look. My first thought is to create all of these styles in a single "Standard" file and create common tool pallets for each drafter. I would also like to establish a standard layering system but can't seem to find much on layer names for audiovisual trades. Any ideas?
