Hello,
I have been using autocad for many years and there are two inprovements I would like to see in the Autocad program or get help to to understand how to do as follows:
1. Export block attributes
In our projects we have many 2d-drawings like P&IDs we are using the export and import attribute functions found under the Express tools. The problem is that the same handle can be found in different drawings and when we put all exports to one single Excel file we import wrong information to some drawingsa with the same handle. One solution could be that the user could add a prefix to the handle defined for each drawing. For example the prefix for drawing one could be set to 1 and the prefix for drawing two could be set to 2 etc. The unique handles for each drawing would then be unique for all handles used in the project. That would help a lot. Do any one know if this is possible with the program as it is today?
2. Select file Look in
When we work with a project we often want to open dwg files from other projects to get solutions done there. To select the file we want it is not possible to write the address in the the Look in field, see attaced picture. What we have to do is to write the address in the File name field. Not a very essentail improvement but maybe a change could be considerad.
