Binding external references

- Now that I'm in my electrical drawing,…I need to reference in the floor plan…so that I can place my outlet around the plan.…I'm going to type in Xref…and I'm taken to the reference manager tab…here in the docked palettes.…I'm going to click the plus here,…and then go find my floor plan and click on open.…I'm going to leave most of…the settings as default,…including attachment,…and I'm going to go ahead and click on OK.…I'll place my reference here and zoom out just a little bit…and there is my external reference.…

Now, I need to place a few outlets…around the perimeter of the room.…I'm going to go over back to my layers palette here,…and we can see all of the external referenced layers…that were added in, when I referenced in my floor plan.…I want the outlets layer here that's in my main plan.…I'm going to dock that back, I'm going to go grab my block,…there it is,…and click on insert.…This is a dynamic block so I can hit control,…and now I can use my alignment perimeter…to place a few of my outlets.…

There we are.…
