Join author Jeff Bartels as he explores the world of references—a tool that allows you to link and reuse external content in AutoCAD. The course covers creating and leveraging block symbols, linking to external drawings or Xrefs, and inserting images into projects. The final chapter includes a drawing challenge, where designers are asked to incorporate references into a drawing, and a demo where Jeff shows how to solve the challenge.
Topics include:
- Inserting blocks
- Building a block library
- Creating a link to a DWG file
- Controlling the appearance of referenced drawings
- Choosing between attach and overlay
- Binding references
- Clipping images
