Adding Multi-View Blocks to a Drawing
Multi-view blocks are inserted in a drawing by referencing their definitions
in one or more of the following locations:
â–  DesignCenter
â„¢
â–  Tool palettes
â–  Tool catalogs
Predefined multi-view blocks supplied with AutoCAD Architecture are available
with DesignCenter. These blocks represent items such as furniture, electrical
appliances, pipes, ducts, annotation symbols, and schedule tags.
A generic multi-view block reference tool is supplied in the AutoCAD
Architecture Stock Tool catalog. This tool is in the Helper Tools category.
How you access a custom multi-view block definition—for example, blocks
that you or someone else in your organization defined—depends on what you
do with the block after you define it. You can use the multi-view block
definition to create AEC content in DesignCenter, or to create a multi-view
block tool that can be stored in a tool palette or tool catalog.
When you insert a multi-view block reference in a drawing, you are prompted
to specify the insertion point for the block. Depending on how the multi-view
block was defined, you may be prompted to specify rotation angle and scale
values.
