Layout menu on mac

Hey guys,

 

I am learning Autocad by watching some tutorials online. Most of them are made for Windows, and when I can find most of the stuff on my Mac version, I am having trouble with the layout menu this guy is explaining. I am attaching an image. So I wonder where I can find this menu or what would be the equivalent.

 

Thanks in advance.IMG_0101.png

The Windows interface is not available on a MAC, sorry.

If you want to learn the Mac version of AutoCAD then your best bet is to look for video tutorials that are for that.

If you want to learn the Windows version of AutoCAD on your Mac there are options to do so (Parallels/VMware):

Hi @evrod20 ,

 

Due to the fact that the AutoCAD for Mac interface is different from the interface of AutoCAD for Windows you can find command buttons related to the Layout in other places on Mac.

1/ Buttons from Layout panel on Windows side:

New Layout - between Model and Layout tabs switcher:

Page Setup button - on the Toolbar here:

2/ Buttons from the Layout Viewports Ribbon panel:

You can find on the Toolbar too, but you need to use "Customise Toolbar" from right-click context menu to add them to the Toolbar:

3/ Buttons from the Create View, Modify View and Update Ribbon panels (Model doc feature):

are not available on Mac, because the commands from these panels are not available in AutoCAD for Mac.

 

4/ Section and Detail view style drop-downs:

available on Mac on the Properties Palette (when no objects are selected):
