"BLOCK" - GDL - Hotlink ?

[Anonymous]

I am looking to create a basic 2d "block" (as autocad calls it)

I want to be able to edit the "block" once and all instances of this be updated through out the project.

i would prefer not to have this as an externally linked file.


what have you found to be the best method to accomplish this?


thanks!

Do it in GDL.
Draw the 2D on the Floor Plan, then save it as an Object. Then place the object.
Check the Help files for additional info and Detailed Steps.

When saving - since you did NOT want an externally linked file - be sure to use the default of saving into the embedded library (which is part of the project file itself).
