Description

A multi-batch utility that allows users to change attribute values, plot multiple drawings with a revision check, and detach X-Refs. 

 

The attribute changing features have the ability to not only change attributes, but also to search and replace a text string within a specified attribute tag value. 

 

The Plot feature plots multiple drawings as PDFs. This is useful for plotting a group of Isometric drawings because the PDF name will inherit the name of the DWG. There is also a revision check feature that allows for the revision number to be included in the PDF name, along with additional user text if desired.

 

The detach X-Ref feature will either remove attached X-Refs, or remove all X-Refs.

 

The BOM Fixer allows you to Search and Replace all tables.

 

Posting Model Builder will combine all objects from a group of drawings into a new drawing.

    Hello

    Great program used it in ACAD2016 with no problems, but now we have shifted to ACAD2019 and all edited files get saved back to 2013-format.

  • almost perfect
    Remo Kaandorp | April 15, 2017

    Would be perfect if I would get the possibility to put my own scripts inside. I mean select the files and then run script, wich i can choose from a chosen directory....

    Remo, Thank you for you review. I'm sorry this app does not fit your needs and I will look into possibly adding this functionality. I believe there is currently a standalone app that will provide this solution called "ScriptPro". Below is the link... https://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/autocad/downloads/caas/downloads/content/autodesk-customization-conversion-tools.html Thank you.


  • Time Saver

    This app is a huge time saver, and very simple to use. From mass plotting to editing dwgs simultaneously it can cut the amount of time you spend on large amounts of files by 90%, easy.
