Check Drawings for Standards Violations | 117
To audit a drawing for standards violations
1 Open a drawing that has one or more associated standards files.
An Associated Standards File(s) icon is displayed in the status bar. If an
associated standards file is missing, a Missing Standards File(s) icon is dis-
played in the status bar.
Note If you click the Missing Standards File(s) icon and then resolve or dis-
sociate missing standards files, the Missing Standards File(s) icon is replaced
by the Associated Standards File(s) icon.
2 In the drawing with one or more associated standards files, enter
checkstandards at the Command prompt.
The Check Standards dialog box is displayed with the first standards
violation reported under Problem.
3 Do one of the following:
■ If you want to apply the item selected in the Replace With list to fix the
violation reported under Problem, click Fix. If there is a recommended
fix in the Replace With list, it is preceded by a check mark. If no recom-
mended fix exists for the current standards violation, the Fix button is
not available.
The Check Standards dialog box automatically displays the next
standards violation under Problem.
■ Manually fix the standards violation in AutoCAD, and then click the
Next button to display the next violation.
■ Select Mark This Problem as Ignored, and then click the Next button to
display the next violation.
Selecting Mark This Problem as Ignored flags the standards violation so
you can prevent it from being displayed the next time you use the
CHECKSTANDARDS command.
■ Click the Next button to display the next violation.
4 Repeat step 2 until you have cycled through all standards violations.
5 Click Close.
