Opening Legacy Drawings
Keep the following points in mind when you open drawings from earlier
releases:
â– To upgrade a drawing from an earlier release to the current release, open
the legacy drawing and then save the drawing. When you open a drawing
from a previous release in a newer one, a task dialog appears prompting
you to do so. If the drawing references other legacy drawings, open and
save those externally referenced (xref) drawings to upgrade them to the
current release.
â– If you try to edit an external reference drawing within a legacy drawing,
you are prompted to update the external reference drawing to the current
release. It is recommended that you use the same version for your external
references and host drawings.
â– If you open a legacy drawing in the Style Manager, the drawing is marked
as read-only; you can copy styles from that drawing to drawings in newer
