Setting Task Pane Options
You can specify what to display in the Task Pane and what displays when you
start the program.
Map Explorer Categories To Display Lets you select which categories
(nodes) you want to display on the Map Explorer tab of the Task Pane.
The visibility of some nodes is dependent on the visibility of others. For
example, the Tables node is visible in the Map Explorer tab of Task Pane
only when you select both Data Sources and Tables.
NOTE When you attach drawings with the Topologies node visible, AutoCAD
Map 3D creates a list of all the topologies to display under Topologies in Map
Explorer. If you attach a large number of drawings containing topologies at
the same time, the creation of the topology list increases the processing time.
To reduce processing time, hide the Topologies node before attaching the
drawings.
Show Task Pane On Startup Specifies whether to display the Task Pane
when you start AutoCAD Map 3D.
Show Properties Palette On Startup Specifies whether to display the
Properties palette when you start AutoCAD Map 3D.
