Creating a New Standard Using 2002 or 2004 Project Settings 

Users of earlier versions of any of the 2D DESIGNER applications may want to transfer their existing settings into the new Standard Manager.  This allows for continuity in drawing appearance and decreases the time required to setup a new Standard.

Settings can be imported during the creation of a new Standard.  Refer to Creating a New 2007 Standard for this procedure.  The older settings get imported on the first dialog box of the New Standard Wizard.

To Import 2002 or 2004 Standard Settings

1.       Click the New Standard button. The New Standard Wizard dialog box opens.

2.       Select the working and displayed units and enter a name for the new Standard.

3.       Click the Use 2002 / 2004 Standard Settings check box.

The paths will default to the newest software installation path.  For example, if 2D DESIGNER V2004 Standard is installed, the paths will use the path for this installation.  In the image above, 2D DESIGNER V2002 was detected.

4.       If any of the settings are on the installation file, specifically any imperial.lsp, metric.lsp or BorderMap.ini, you will need to change the locations, respectively.

5.       Click the Next button.

Ø      Continue the installation as described in the Creating a New 2007 Standard procedure.
