Where can i find the tablet overlay for AutoCAD LT 2014?

Where can i find the drawing for the tablet overlay for LT 2014?
I cannot find it on the original DVD. I cannot find it in the installation. I searched for tablet.dwg and tablet overlay.dwg etc.

I opened all sample files. I cannot find one that matched the configuration of LT 2014 on these official support sites (found Lt 2010 version).

My last version of LT was 2000 on a now crashed computer. So i cannot migrate older files. I dont have the knowledge to migrate it either.

Hi and welcome

 

It looks like Autodesk stopped bundling the tablet drawing with later versions of Autocad. BUT you can customise the tablet commands. First use the LT2010 template. I only found an LT2008 template and LT2009 template, but nothing had changed between them.

 

Then see if the command TABLET works.

 

Also if you type TABLET into the help menu there is a lot of information there for you as well.

Thanks for your comment. But customisation by myself is not an option. I have to do my work! I cannot spend much time to customize it by myself. The rule ist installation - printout - calibration and go! I hope that some Autodesk authorities will read this and correct there decision.

There is no going back, sorry, the times have moved on from tablets.

What's wrong with using the 2010 version you found? Tablets died with Autodesk a long time ago, so any format you find will most likely still work with the legacy Tablet options till around in the program.

Meanwhile i found out that the 2010 design of the tablet overlay is identical with my old 2000 design. But he tablet overlay definition of 2014 is not identical with the 2000/2010 overlay.
Now i have to find out if the 2014 definition carry new useful features and i have to rebuild the overlay drawing manually. Alteratively i have to redifine the the tablet menus with the CUI to fit the old overlay drawing.

I never found it useful to work with all those toolboxes on the display. I configured AotoCAD with a drawing/workspace window as big as possible.
