■
Substitute proxy objects so that you can view the objects that were
created in AutoCAD Land Development Desktop.
When someone opens an AutoCAD Land Development Desktop
drawing in another flavor of AutoCAD, the Proxy Information dialog
box is displayed.
The Proxy Information dialog box lists the missing application and
the number of proxy objects in the drawing. It also gives you three
options:
■
Do not show proxy graphics: Does not show the proxy graphics.
■
Show proxy graphics: Displays custom ARX objects as proxy
graphics.
■
Show proxy bounding box: Displays a bounding box around
custom ARX objects.
Viewing Drawings
A drawing’s position, orientation, or magnification level is known as
the view. The direction from which you view the drawing is called the
viewpoint. To access standard AutoCAD viewing tools, select 3D Views
from the View menu to display a submenu with viewing options. For
quick access to view options, display the View toolbar in the ACAD
menu group.
