    Default AutoCAD 2007 - Plot dialog box, where has the 'What To Plot' area gone?

    Hi All,

    My work has recently upgrade from Acad04 to 07 and we have been particularly intrigued by the change (or rearrangement) of the plot dialog box. One thing we have noticed and would like info on is what has happened to the 'What To Plot' area. You used to be able to simply select from 'Current Tab' or 'All Layout Tabs' (which we found handy) but these options seem to have been cut from the latest version, is this the case or am I missing something?

    Do you see a blue/white, right-facing arrow in the plot dialogue? If so, click it.


    edit - make that a black arrow-head.

    Hi

    The "What to plot" area is still there in the AutoCAD 2007 Plot dialog box, please refer to the attached screen capture.

    Have a good one, Mike

    Thanks for that,

    They seem to have taken away the 'Plot All Layouts' function so while you can plot a particular layout individually, if you have many layouts you can't plot them all in one hit as you could previously.

    Hi

    Hold down the Ctrl key and select the Layouts you want to Plot -> Right click while cursor is over a Layout tab -> From right-click pop-up menu select option "Publish Selected Layouts".

    Have a good one, Mike
