I am not a complete air-head I promise, but the book I bought (AutoCAD 2009 & AutoCAD LT 2009 Bible by: Ellen Finkelstein) doesn't explain any of the following questions, or at least I can't find them anywhere, and believe me, I have searched from cover to cover. I'm using AutoCAD LT 2009 by the way:
- Everytime I open AutoCAD LT 2009 to start a new drawing, or edit an existing one... I have to change the dimension style, and the text style. It's so annoying to have to change it EVERYTIME I open a drawing!! Even if I work on something, save it, close it, and then re-open it a few seconds later without ever closing AutoCAD... I still have to open the Dimension Style and change it again. Is there anyway I can save it the way I want it or make it the 'default' of all drawings so that I can open and edit drawings without having to change the Dimension Style every time??
- This question is similar to the previous... I'm having the same problem, only with my layout tabs. Everytime I go to the 'layout' tab to view or plot a drawing... I have to go through the page setup manager. Is there a way to save my plot/layout settings so that I can use the same plot/layout settings on varies drawings, and not have to go through the page setup manager each time?
Sorry I typed an encyclopedia. This is my last question. I promise.
- Everytime I open a drawing I have to re-make my layers. Is there a way to save a set of layers so I can somehow import them into whatever drawing I'm working with? I'm so sick of having to re-make them. It's such a waste of time.
I appreciate any responses.. Even if you only answer one question.. Heck, even if you ask a question and don't answer mine. I'll take anything. Haha. Thanks so much for your time, and I hope to read your responses soon.
