Index Type
Determines whether layer or spatial indexes are created when you save a
drawing. The indexes are used to improve performance during demand loading.
Using indexes may slightly increase the time required to save a drawing.
None Creates neither layer nor spatial indexes when you save a drawing.
Layer Loads only layers that are on and thawed.
Spatial Loads only the portion of the drawing within a clipped boundary.
Layer & Spatial Optimizes performance by specifying that the program loads
only layers that are on, thawed, and within a clipped boundary area.
Save All Drawings As
Specifies the default file format that drawings are saved to. You can also set
this option on the Open and Save tab in the Options dialog box.
For more information, see OPTIONS.
DXF Options Tab (Saveas Options Dialog Box)
Sets drawing interchange file output options.
Format
Specifies whether to create an ASCII or a binary DXF file. ASCII-format DXF
files can be read with a text editor and are compatible with a wider range of
applications. Binary-format DXF files are more compact. Read and write
operations with binary-format files is faster than with ASCII-format files.
For more information about DXF files, see the DXF Reference in the Help system.
Select Objects
Controls whether the DXF file consists of selected objects or the entire drawing.
When the output file includes only selected objects, the block definitions of
only the selected block references are included.
