When creating AEC Content, remember that the resulting file is a new
drawing that takes its content and other settings from the drawing in
which you are running the AEC Content Wizard. With this in mind, there
are some critical steps you should take before launching the Wizard:
1 Start in a clean drawing. Instead of using the QNEW command, which
loads a template, use the NEW command and choose Open with No
Template - Imperial from the Open drop down list.
IMPORTANT Make sure you have set your drawing setup parameters to
automatically load your layer key style into any new drawing. This is critical
in order to assign your content to a layer key.
2 Make sure your drawing window background color is set to white.
The resulting content file will have an associated icon with it. The
icon background color will be the same color as your AutoCAD
drawing window background.
3 Make sure you have all of the items necessary for your content in the
current drawing. In the case of a multi-view block that you may have
defined in another drawing, if you simply copy that block into the
current drawing, all necessary view blocks will import with it.
4 Create the graphics for your content files Design Center icon.
