Design Center (blocks) - can't find it in 2019

Anonymous
Not applicable

When using 2017, I had something called "Design Center" which gave me all kinds of hardware blocks.

In 2019, I can't find a Design Center, nor any hardware blocks.

Do I have to buy these separate, or am I missing them?

 

Thank you.

Just type 'designcenter' or press Ctrl+2 on your keyboard, the hardware blocks are something that you might have had set up on your 2017 system, what type of blocks?

The blocks that I used in 2017 were simply hardware. Nuts, bolts, washers etc.

 

I hit ctrl+2 and I see the Design Center, but in the folder for Fasteners - US, for example, there are only about 20 miscellaneous blocks, not the 100's I would see in 2017 with just about every nut, bolt and washer.

 

I am thinking this might be as you suggested, something that I needed to tell it to install when the software was initially installed.

Update: I think I just found the blocks on my old PC that was running 2017, and brought them over to the new machine that's running 2019.

Looks like it works fine, so I thought I would let you know.

 

Thank you for your help.
