AutoCAD and AutoCAD LT for Mac 2018.1 Update Readme

Thank you for installing AutoCAD^®/AutoCAD LT for Mac^®2018.1 Update

The 2018.1 Update improves the functionality and user experience. It also improves overall stability of the product. This update is recommended for all users. Please read the entire document before you apply the update to your product. For reference, please save this document to your hard drive or print a copy.

The 2018.0.1 Hotfix is included in this update.

Contents

New Feature Highlight

Highlight indicator for what's changed on the interface, and new style tooltips.
Welcomescreen Learn page now lists new enhancements additional to the videos.

Plot and Page Setup

'Always default to previous plot settings' option added in the Plot dialog.
'Save as PDF' button added in the Plot dialog.
Plot preview PDF file now shows a meaningful name.
Multiple layouts can be assigned to same page setup easily in the Quick View dialog.
Easy access for Plot/Page Setup added in Layout tab right-click menu.
Added button 'Open the PDF file..' in the 'Plot and Publish Job Completed' window.

Drag and Drop

Drag a file to canvas to attach/insert it.
Supported file formats: dwg, dxf, pdf, lsp and all supported image formats.

Purge

When I started to use this application, my both hard disks was connected to the system and I wrongly selected the good (1TB) hard disk and select advanced tests. This wiped out entire set of information from my healthy Seagate GoFlex Ultra-Portable Drive. Seagate driver windows 10. I just wanted to know whether I can recover data from Seagate GoFlex Ultra-Portable Drive which got erased by mistake.

Purge all now will automatically remove unwanted objects in nested objects.
Purge all now will purge orphaned data, i.e. DGN linetypes.
Added 'Settings' option in Purge command to turn on/off the changes above.

Content

Content palette will be switched to current when adding a block to a content library.
