Hi,
I'll ramble for a bit so you understand the background then list my current issues.
We have a handful of machines (computers) using AutoCAD LT 2012, using the classic workspace i.e. using toolbars, we have about a dozen custom toolbars for inserting blocks at different scales for different things. We are measured building surveyors who draw up buildings primarily for ARchitects.
Our pc's are getting on and we are begining to up grade them and at the same time we will be ugrading AutoCAD LT with the Subs that we pay for.
As we have an extra member of staff now I bought a new windoews 8.1 computer and have AutoCAD LT 2015 installed on it. Because of the way I have done this I cannot migrate any customization files or can i?
My main issues now are:
Command line, I like to see 3 lines of text is this possible?
I accept toolbars aren't allowed and it is now ribbons, but I cannot seem to have all the icons under home/draw visable at once, i would prefer this way. I have messed around in the cui but to no avail, any pointers?
Also how would I create a toolbar with 4 blocks in for say symbols we using for toilets etc?
Thinking forward, the next pc upgrade will happen in 6 weeks or so, should I movethe LT 2012 to the new pc then upgrade to 2015 LT so I can migrate custom settings?
Thanks in advance,
(Not desperate yet) Ross
