â– The standards drawings are included in e-transmit and archiving packages
created of the project.
You would place your standards drawings within the project if you want to
keep the standards drawings specific to that project. You can copy the standards
drawings to a new project, but any changes you make to one set of the
standards drawings will not be propagated to the other one.
A Folder Outside the Project
If project standards drawings are located outside the project, they are referenced
from that location. You would do this typically for standards that are not
specific to a project, but rather to the department or the company. In that
case, copying the standards to individual projects would create a risk of version
discrepancies being introduced in the multiple copies. Also, a change made
to a company-wide standards file would not be automatically propagated to
all projects using that standards file. Placing a standards drawing outside the
project has the following implications:
â– When you use the project as a template for a new project, the project
standards drawings are not copied to the new project. They are referenced
from their original location.
â– If you copy the standards of the project to another project, the project
standards drawings are referenced from their original location in the other
project.
â– If you synchronize project standards drawings with each other, standards
drawings outside the project will not be included in the synchronization.
For more information, see Synchronizing Project Standards with Each
Other on page 676.
â– The standards drawings outside the project folder are not included in
e-transmit and archiving packages created of the project. For more
information, see Electronically Transmitting a Project on page 337.
