    Default ACAD 2011 Structural Detailing SP1 or ACAD 2011 Update 1.1??

    Ok, so I sent an error report when my AutoCAD crashed the other day & it recommended I install AutoCAD Structural Detailing 2011 Service Pack 1...then I was browsing the Autodesk website & noticed there was also an AutoCAD 2011 update 1.1. Does anyone know which one I should install? Or if both? Autodesk is confusing this year because they refer to ACAD 2011 as ACAD structural detailing this year...even when you open ACAD 2011 it calls it that even though there is a seperate shortcut for structural detailing. Wasn't sure if update 1.1 was a prerelease of the service pack 1 or came after or what? Just trying to get my CAD software up to date. Thanks

    AutoCAD Structural Detailing is a vertical based on AutoCAD. So you need to install the update specifically for that vertical and not the "vanilla" AutoCAD update.

    This general question ("Why can't I install the AutoCAD SPnnn on my run-as version?") seems to come up an awful lot. Might be worth being a sticky somewhere, such as under the vertical application areas. A brief explanation that only "genuine" AutoCAD can use the AutoCAD service packs while verticals, including the "run-as AutoCAD", will need the update specific to the parent vertical.
