Hello Everybody,
My office has been a big "CAD System X" user for many years. We have had AutoCAD for some time and when we have used it,
we've pretty much used it as it comes "out of the box". We live in an AutoCAD world and the time has come for us to start using
AutoCAD directly on our projects. I've been asked to work on developing a "company" environment for ACAD 2009.
This is my question to you...
Where to start and what to avoid? I want a well thought out and productive custom environment.
I'd like avoid mistakes made by not thinking things through and understanding options.
- I know we will need templates - but paper or model space?
What else about templates should be thought of up front?
I'm sure there are many things that could go in a template - but what?
- We need to decide how we as a group will handle our referencing
I see a couple ways, what's best?
- Plotting, CTBs or STBs? Anyway to simplify plottting and get it down to one click?
- Lot's of things to think of when starting down this road.
Can anyone recommend where one could get some type of checklist of "things to be considered"?
I'm looking forward hearing your suggestions and appreciate your experienced advice. Thank you.
Regards,
Steve Chestnut
