Mark Lancaster. Synergis Engineering Design Solutions. Autodesk only maintains the current released product year and 3 legacy versions. Legacy versions that are older than this guideline are considered obsoleted and no longer supported by Autodesk. Under this condition, Autodesk does not provide "live" download links for these legacy versions that fall outside of this scope. For example if the current product release is , access to three 3 legacy versions for example can still be downloaded through your Autodesk Account or the Autodesk AVA per the following:.
If you fall under one of these conditions and need to install or reinstall these legacy versions. However please keep in mind your request to access these legacy version may not be permitted at all or even supported by Autodesk. Skip to main content. Support and learning. Layer Properties Manager Palette The Layer Properties Manager Window can now be run as a Palette which might be pretty handy if you are primarily working on organizing and cleaning drawings based on Layer Properties; i.
The undocumented system variable that switches between the old and the new Layer Manager layout is "LayerDlgMode" where "1" means that whenever you activate the Layer Manager, it will appear as a Palette. In the illustration to the right I show how you can now collapse the Filters list of the Layer Properties Manager Palette to make a little more room. With this configuration I would argue that you can actually dock it to the side and work while it is active. Because I am always curious about new and undocumented improvements, I just had to see if there were any drag-n-drop features added to the Layer Manager.
For example, I tried to drag an Object to a Layer but that didn't work. Then, I tried to drag Layer Names up and down in the stack; that didn't work either.
I suppose asking for an opacity control on Layers is out of the question :. This was the first thing I looked into deactivating. I think tooltips are useful for those just learning how to use a program but they can soon become annoying. You can find two primary settings for Tooltips and RolloverTips under the Display tab of the Options dialog or you can use the system variables ToolTips and RollOverTips to activate or deactivate these distractions.
I wonder if anyone out there with a good sense of humor will write some tooltips that read like those crazy balloon used on television shows. Balloon Notification Balloon Notification in ACA seems a little wacky to me so let me share what I discovered about turning this stuff on an off. When you start to draw a Wall in ACA , for example, you will see a Balloon notifying you about the latest features of the WallAdd command.
This type of Balloon is called a "Did You Know message" and you can turn it off in two places that's where it gets weird. If you look at the image to the right with the Wall Balloon active, you can see the " Don't show me this again " setting. If you pick on this option, the "Did You Know message" Balloons will go away but getting them back, should you ever want to, is confusing.
Before I explain what happens when you pick on the "Don't show me this again" setting, take a look at the " Search Settings " menu option found on the Search menu. From this menu, you can access the InfoCenter Settings dialog where you will find the " Did you Know message " checkbox and the " Enable Balloon notification for: " checkbox for everything.
If you turn off either of these two options, you won't have Balloons for adding things like Walls. Balloon - "Did You Know Balloons" Getting back to the discussion above about checking the "Don't show me this again " setting on the "Did you Know message" Balloon, you won't be able to use the information illustrated above to turn things back on.
In fact, if you use the "Don't show me this again" option and check the "Did You Know message" checkbox, it will still be checked. In the illustration to the right I show a new button on the System tab of the Options dialog box : " Hidden Messages Settings ". My guess is that there are plans for more Balloon messages. This may seem like a minor annoyance, but when your editing title blocks for example it is useful to be able to edit exactly what you click on. If anyone can suggest a way around this problem it would be greatly appreciated.
Otherwise we will have to "redo" all our blocks, which we would definitely like to avoid doing. Message 2 of 6. Post a screenshot of this "list" in , and a screenshot of what you got in if you still have it.
Message 3 of 6. Thanks for getting back, I can't do a screen shot like I do have a better description of what I am trying to describe. When I open a block created in the version in the block is opened and the "Enhanced Attribute Editor" dialogue box opens up to edit the block. When I open the block up in this does not happen, the dialogue box that opens up is the most basic type of editing block where you scroll through the different attributable items until you find the one you want to edit.
Hope that description is better. Message 4 of 6. The new default gives more control in one place but it is a kludge when all you want is to change a keynote from 1 to 2.
Message 5 of 6. I think I understand you to be saying that you prefer the "enhanced attribute editor" eattedit over the "basic" editor that appears in AutoCAD LT not sure what command that is.
Two suggestions: 1.
