DescriptionCommand NameIcon
Migrates non-AutoCAD Mechanical drawings
to the latest AutoCAD Mechanical drawing
AMBOMMIGRATE
format. Legacy BOM data within the drawings
will be migrated to intelligent BOM and Parts
list data.
Breaks a line, polyline, or a spline at a specified
point.
AMBREAKATPT
Draws a special spline to show breakout bor-
ders.
AMBROUTLINE
Displays, hides, and moves the mechanical
browser.
AMBROWSER
Inserts a blind slot from the content library.AMBSLOT2D
Draws break out lines, as in hatched loop
breaks or freehand breaks in shafts.
AMC_Break_Line
Draws centerline.AMC_Centerline
Draws construction lines to display with the
content.
AMC_Construction
Draws construction lines that do not display
with the content.
AMC_Construction_Invis-
ible (Layer Name)
Draws contour edges.AMC_Contour
Draws contours that make underlying and
overlapping objects invisible in a hide situ-
ation.
AMC_Contour_BHII
Draws contours that do not display with the
content, and make underlying and overlap-
ping objects invisible in a hide situation.
