Welcome to Autodesk Forums! 

 

Hi @Anonymous 

 

The solution is to open drawings from AutoCAD with OPEN command - menu File -> Open or button on Toolbar, but not with double clicking in Finder.

 

That is NOT Mac like.  If we wanted Windows we would run Windows and use Windows version of AutoCAD.  We run Mac's because of its ease of use and the UI.   Double clicking the file to launch the program, even on a network drive, and load the file has been a feature of the Macintosh since day 1.   Autodesk needs to figure this one out and provide a fix.  Please.

You can notify Autodesk through the proper channels here https://knowledge.autodesk.com/contact-support
and here https://www.autodesk.com/company/contact-us/product-feedback

We are only end users just like you around here so ranting at us is totally pointless.

I believe this is an Autodesk owned and run forum and it is not just end users. We have received comments from Autodesk directly in the past.   In addition, expressing frustrations regarding the functionality of the program is not out of the ordinary within this forum.  

 

But to your point, I have notified Autodesk of this issue through the channels in your provided links.

These forums are PEER SUPPORT, users helping other users: ownership has nothing to do with getting your wishes and desires with the software resolved or addressed. Apples and Oranges comparisons, no one from Autodesk's developer teams comes in here to sort through a million posts just looking for user feedback on how to alter the software.

That's the reality.

Glad you took the advice to post in more appropriate areas.

I meant a workaround, sorry if I put it wrong.
