Updating Associative Spaces
Associative spaces are defined by their boundary objects and are updated when
the boundary objects change. You can choose to have associative spaces update
automatically whenever there is a relevant change to boundary objects, or
you can choose to perform the space update manually.
Updating Associative Spaces Bounded by External References
Objects in external references can serve as boundary objects for associative
spaces in the host drawing. When the objects in the external reference change,
the space is updated too. In previous versions, a manual update was necessary
to propagate changes in the external reference’ s boundary objects to the spaces
in the host drawing; now changes from external references are automatically
updated when reloading the external reference, if the automatic update of
associative spaces is activated (see Activating and Deactivating Automatic
Updates on page 2928).
Roundtripping Associative Spaces between AutoCAD Architecture 2011 and
previous Versions
In previous versions of the software, boundary linework objects were defined
by a filter selection during space generation. In the current version, each object
has its own Bound Spaces property in the Properties palette. This includes
blocks and xrefs. These changes can cause discrepancies when roundtripping
drawings that contain 2D linework, blocks, and external references. For
example, when a line in the current version of the software has its Bound
Spaces property set to Yes, and is opened in a previous version, it will still be
a boundary object for spaces, but it will be selected via the boundary filter of
