My company uses AutoCAD Electrical for their schematic design. My newest problem is that we are going to want to add several dozen new symbols to the library, but we have multiple computers with ACADE. I am predicting that adding each symbol to one computer's CAD library using the "Icon Menu Wizard", and then adding them all over again to the next, and all over again to the next, etc, will be quite time consuming. I was wondering if there was a way to find the root of the library (sorry if I am not wording that correctly), add the symbols to th(os)e root file(s) and then direct everyone's CAD libraries to that root, so that all the new symbols just show up in the library. Basically, similiarily to how AutoCAD's library already has their symbols in there without the need to add all of them, I want all of the company's symbols to already be on the symbol library by default. Is there a way to do this?
