How can you get furniture and kitchen unit blocks on AutoCAD mac 2022

I have located the Content library however I can only get mechanical, civil, architectural etc. blocks. I cannot locate any of the furniture blocks such as toilet, kitchen unit, sofa etc. The other students in my class have these on the windows version, are they just not available to the MAC users? I need to insert these types of blocks to complete an assignment

Welcome to Autodesk Forums!

 

Hi @ffinnigan590006 ,

 

You can download standard AutoCAD Design Center sample drawings here:

https://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/autocad-lt/downloads/caas/downloads/content/sample-dynamic-bl...

 

Download sample_drawings.zip - Italian from the location above and extract Design Center folder from it (do not pay attention that they are called "Italian". In fact, they are the same for all AutoCAD languages):

Thank you so much @maxim_k  ! This has worked perfectly, I clicked on the files within 'show downloads' on browser then I could just go onto the blocks centre, click the import files tab which brings up finder and double click the design centre file and it uploaded. Honestly my new best friend, you have saved this assignment and my sanity!

Not surprising @chstout - it's from a decade ago. They have to clean house at some time.

 

Perhaps someone below can track down that download for you.

Yes, Autodesk removed this AKN page.

If you still need these sample drawings - find them in the attachment.

 

Or with this link:

The post you are replying to has a ZIP file with the content from that page you can just download and use right now

Not sure if anyone will see this...

The zip still works perfectly, however the Titles of the Blocks are in Italian. 

 

Autodesk -  is there an English version of this zip? I’m a CAD student and I know a few other Mac Version students who would be extremely grateful for this fix to the missing Design Center feature. 🙂
