How to survive in an AutoCAD environnement ?

[Anonymous]

I've been using ArchiCAD since 6.5 after having used AutoCAD 14 & 2000... I just got a new job in a big organization (more than 800 workers) where AutoCAD 2004 is massively used.

Is there any hints, tips, etc. that would help me keep using ArchiCAD in this environnement ?

So what you can do is take away any thing under the "Create custom layers for" your windows and doors.
What you can then do is convert your pens that you have used on your windows and doors and place them on what ever layer you like.

E.G Every thing drawn with Pen 200 goes onto AutoCAD layer "Outer Windows"

Thanks for the tip.

I'll first try to get the authorization to use "officially" 😉 ArchiCAD then I'll begin to setup the translators...
