Summary
You can create a new version of a drawing file with all proxy AEC objects
exploded into basic AutoCAD objects. The new version of the drawing loses
the intelligence of the custom AEC objects, but the resulting basic objects can
be displayed and accessed in earlier versions of AutoCAD when object enablers
are not available for those versions.
NOTE Any subsequent changes you make to this new drawing file do not affect
the original drawing file.
