AutoCAD 2000CustomizationReferenceVersion 1.0USDA - FOREST SERVICEROCKY MOUNTAIN REGIONGOLDEN, COLORADONovember 2000
IntroductionThe following AutoCAD 2000 Customization Reference was compiled by theCenter for Design and Interpretation (CDI) as a guide to assist the user with adescription of all the menus and icons that are a part of the AutoCAD 2000Customization program. The Customization file was developed to minimizerepetitive commands, create an easier method for inserting standard symbols/border sheets, and assist in the standardization of AutoCAD in the Forest Service.This program is intended for Forest Service employees throughout the region, aswell as any AutoCAD 2000 user in the Forest Service. Updated versions of theAutoCAD Customization program will be available through the CDI AutoCADweb site in the future.Suggestions for improvement are strongly encouraged and welcomed so thatsubsequent updates will reflect the needs and input of the users.Recommendations or suggestions should be emailed to:Jesse Kehmjkehm@fs.fed.usFuture updates to this document may be viewed or downloaded from the CDIAutoCAD web site: http://fsweb.r2.fs.fed.us/eng/cdi/cadd-1-
CustomizationThis section is designed to give information on AutoCAD customization that hasbeen developed for the Forest Service. Repetitively used setups, commands andsymbols have been customized and made available to users to add additionalfunctionality to the AutoCAD program, specific to the needs of the design andconstruction program.If you're on the Regional Office network, once your AutoCAD 2000 is properlyconfigured you'll see the FS pulldown menu at the top of your AutoCAD screen,which indicates that you have the customization files loaded. If you're not on theRO network, you can install the AutoCAD customization on your PC. Thiscustomization is available on CD-ROM (request a copy from CDI) or you candownload the files from the CDI AutoCAD web site:http://fsweb.r2.fs.fed.us/eng/cdi/caddThe FS Pulldown MenuThe FS pulldown menu, located on the AutoCAD menu bar at the top of yourscreen, contains access to customized commands and toolbars created for Region2 use. The FS pulldown menu offers three options: Command Add-ons - A list of custom commandsToolbars- Discipline specific toolbarsWeb Links- Direct access to R2/CDI support sitesCommand Add-onsThe Command Add-ons menu selection brings up a dialogue box listing allcustom commands available to the user and a general description of eachcommands function. Instructions are contained in the dialogue box, which allowthe user to browse the list of commands, select a command for use, or generate amore detailed description of the selected command functionality. See Appendixfor a list of the FS specific commands.Toolbars-2-
The Toolbars menu selection brings up a menu, which displays selections for the MainToolbar, and the discipline specific toolbars that have been developed to meet FS needs.The Main ToolbarThe Main Toolbar brings up a menu that offers a main toolbar with flyouts or individualtoolbars that contain the main tools, grouped by function. The Main Toolbar was createdto provide easy access to specific functions that benefit all users.Main/ToolsIcon MenuAdd-on CommandsOpen Recent DrawingGet LayerGet Point Between- Will take the user directly to the icon menu forselection of symbols- Custom commands developed for R2 use- Displays a list of recently opened drawings foruser selection- Displays the layer of user selected object- Allows user to find midpoint of 2 selectedpoints while in a commandMain/Object PropertiesLayer SetAll Layers OnLayer OffThaw All LayersLayer FreezeLayer LockLayer UnlockSet Layer/Color/LtypeText Set- Set Current Layer- Turns on all layers- Turns off selected layers- Thaws all layers- Freezes selected layers- Locks selected layers- Unlocks selected layers- Sets layer, color and/or linetype to matchexisting objects- Select text to match attributesMain/Modify ObjectsChange Layer- Changes the layer of objectsCopy Properties- Changes properties to match selected objectsChange Text Height - Changes text height of selected textMain/Construction EntitiesFreestyle Construction Line- Construction line drawn in no-plot pen-3-
