How to import a Master Layout

Anonymous
Not applicable
I created a Master Layout with the tile block for our office but don't know how to append it to a existing project. In other word I want to import that Master Layout into existing AC 10 projects. Help please and thank you.

Use the Organizer to Browse for the project with the Master, then simply drag the master from the left pane to the right pane. Be careful though, as it will bring in attributes from the original file, such as layers, pensets, line types, fill types, etc.

Cheers,

... and any absolute file paths for placed elements on that original master . . .

e.g. if your master consists of a placed drawing of the title block (for easier global updating), the file path of that drawing will still be pointing to the original view
