With No path, the AutoCAD software searches in the current folder of the host drawing, and in the project paths, support paths, and Start-in folder. It starts from the folder of the host drawing.įull path uses the entire path. By default, the Path type is set to Relative Path.

The Path Type Controls how the AutoCAD software searches for the reference file to load it.

As previously mentioned, I have provided a fully detailed section on Sharing Designs in the Cloud collaboration along with a hands on practice in Chapter 10: Cloud Collaboration and 2D Automation in the AutoCAD 2018: Advanced - Mixed Unitsstudent guide. I hope that you will find the above feature useful for sharing your drawing with other team members. This option enables stakeholders to view the design without having to log in to A360 or have the AutoCAD software installed on their computers. To publish views of drawings to the cloud while protecting your drawing files, on the A360 tab>Share panel, click (Share Design View). Expand: Expands to display a menu with options that enable you to move, copy, rename, upload a new version, or delete the file. Download: Enables you to download the file for local viewing and editing. Share: Enables you to share a link with other users so that they can access the file in A360. When you hover over a drawing name, various icons display that enable you to work with the file. The links are created in the Share dialog box. This enables them to display, download, and edit any drawings to which you provide access. Private sharing enables you to share drawings with other users with whom you are actively working on projects. The link only enables you to display or download the drawing without giving them permission to make any changes. Public sharing enables anyone that has the link to access the drawing. To upload one or more files at a time, click Upload in the A360 browser.Navigate into the folders to locate files as required.

The browser displays a list of all available folders. You can also open files from the Cloud and attach files located in the Cloud using the Look in drop-down list and selecting the A360 option.Īfter signing in to A360, in the A360 tab>Online Files panel, click (Open A360 Drive) to open the A360 browser. Additionally, you can click (Share Document) in the A360 tab>Share panel. Sharing drawings with other team members in A360 is as easy as saving the drawing file and selecting A360 as the storage location in the Save in drop-down list. The cloud collaboration topic is discussed in detail in Chapter 10: Cloud Collaboration and 2D Automation in the AutoCAD 2018: Advanced - Mixed Units student guide. Using A360, you can easily and conveniently share drawings with other team members. The Autodesk® 360 (A360) software is the direct connection to the Autodesk Cloud environment, which enables teams to work together and share information, and provides knowledge on how to display and edit a drawing file.
