CAD Panel
The CAD panel contains settings that define how CAD blocks and other objects behave.
CAD Blocks - These settings determine the default fill style behavior for CAD blocks. See "CAD Blocks".
- Check Always use 'By Object' for CAD block fill style to retain the fill pattern for component objects when they are blocked. If you remove the check mark, the fill pattern is determined in the CAD Block Specification. See "CAD Block Specification Dialog".
- Check Use 'By Object' when creating new CAD blocks to have By Object checked on the General tab of the CAD Block Specification dialog. See "General Tab".
Options - These settings control the editability of polylines, polyline-like objects such as walls connected to form a room, and splines.
- Check Edit Object Parts to edit the individual components of a polyline or polyline-like object. This functionality can also be accessed by clicking the Edit Object Parts
button. See "Edit Object Parts".
- Check Advanced Splines to enable the advanced spline setting as the default editing behavior for all subsequently drawn splines. You can also enable this function for an individual spline by clicking the Advanced Splines
edit button. See "Advanced Splines".
