AutoCAD

When working with Autodesk® AutoCAD® software and External References,
it might happen that things move around and not all DWG® files are updated.

This can happen because of contract requirements of file versioning, merging or splitting data across
different references, adapting a standard to the realities of the project, …

In this entry, we explain how to use RefMan and its quick overview to avoid or
detect and correct early that situation.

As usual, we treat projects as if they had hundreds or a thousand files, but this is also applicable to
projects with a smaller file count.

If you work with Autodesk® AutoCAD® software in large projects,
you probably use External References.

But precisely in large projects, managing those references can be a time drain.
Which is why we added RefMan as one of our apps.

RefMan allows you to manage External References in projects with hundreds
or even thousands of DWG® files.

In this entry, we explain how to use RefMan to quickly have an overview of all
External References and whether or not they are correctly set up and how to
fix things quickly when they aren’t perfect.
