WARNING When you repath a project that was saved in a version
of AutoCAD Architecture prior to 2010, the drawings are saved in
the new file format. You will no longer be able to open these drawings
in a version of AutoCAD Architecture prior to 2010. Synchronizing a
project with the project standards will also save the project drawings
in the new file format. For more information, see Repath the Project
on page 511.
For more information on updating files, see Repath the Project
on page 511.
Changing Constructs: Interactions with the Project
Changes made to one part of a project frequently influence other parts of the
project. The following information describes the changes you can make to a
construct and the effects of the changes on other parts of the building project:
â–  Adding a new construct: When you add new constructs to a project, you
must fill them with drawing objects or referenced elements. Also, you must
create views in which to display them. For more information, see Creating
a New View Drawing on page 439.
â–  Changing the construct name and category (location): Constructs are
referenced into views. Therefore, any name and location changes to a
construct need to be updated throughout the project. To update any xref
paths to the construct, repath the project, as described in Repath the Project
on page 511.

â–  Changing the level and division of a construct: If you change the level and
division you may need to regenerate views. For more information, see
Regenerating the View Drawings in a Project on page 451.
â–  Deleting a construct: If you delete a construct you may need to regenerate
views. For detailed information on deleting constructs, see Deleting a
Construct on page 407. For detailed information on views, see Views on
page 432.
