Configuration of the Fabasoft Integration for Autodesk AutoCAD

Known Blocks

Known blocks that are to be processed have to be configured in the AutoCAD configuration object

The name of each known block has to be added to the list Available Blocks in order to be recognized by the LoadFolioFields command.

Fabasoft Folio Fields

Attributes within known blocks are identified and updated via the use of Fabasoft Folio fields. An attribute in Autodesk AutoCAD is identified by its name (or "tag"). The connection between an attribute and a Fabasoft Folio field is established by a case insensitive match between the attribute's name and the Fabasoft Folio field's object name.

The following fields are defined for the object classes FSCAUTOCAD@1.1001:Drawing and FSCAUTOCAD@1.1001:Project:

FieldName (FSCAUTOCAD@1.1001:FieldName)
FieldSubject (FSCAUTOCAD@1.1001:FieldSubject)
FieldCreatedBy (FSCAUTOCAD@1.1001:FieldCreatedBy)
FieldCreatedAt (FSCAUTOCAD@1.1001:FieldCreatedAt)
FieldLastChangedBy (FSCAUTOCAD@1.1001:FieldLastChangedBy)
FieldLastChangedAt (FSCAUTOCAD@1.1001:FieldLastChangedAt)
FieldCurrentVersion (FSCAUTOCAD@1.1001:FieldCurrentVersion)

Example:

FieldName
