Updating Legacy Architectural Desktop Multi-view Blocks to Annotative
Use this procedure to edit a legacy Architectural Desktop multi-view block
and add an annotative property to each block for each view. You can also use
this procedure to update legacy AEC dimensions.
1 Open the legacy Architectural Desktop drawing in AutoCAD
Architecture.
2 Specify the same annotation scale in the new AutoCAD
Architecture drawing as in the legacy Architectural Desktop
drawing.
3 Click Insert tab ➤ Block panel ➤ Edit Block.
4 In the Edit Block Definition dialog, select the first block to edit,
and then click OK.
5 On the Properties Palette, under Block, select Yes for Annotative.
6 On the Block Editor toolbar, click Close Block Editor and then
save your changes.
7 Repeat these steps for the remaining blocks of the remaining views
of the multi-view block.
8 On the Command Line, enter ANNOUPDATE to update the
selected blocks.
The selected blocks now have an annotative property.
Copying Participating Annotation Scales from One AEC Object to Another
You can copy annotation scales from annotative multi-view blocks and AEC
dimensions as source AEC objects to other AEC objects. A prerequisite is that
your drawing must contain an annotative AEC object that participates in at
least 2 annotation scales. For example, you can copy annotation scales from
one door tag to another.
1 Add 2 doors to your drawing.
2 Add a door tag to the first door.
