JTB LayoutsToDwgs
Digitally signed app
Description
If you have a multiple-layout drawing and want only one layout per drawing this is the app for you. JTB LayoutsToDwgs will save each of your layouts to a single-layout drawings. Model space is copied as is.
New drawings are named after the layouts, with a prefix and a suffix specified by you. Drawings are saved in the source drawing folder.
You will be asked to use WBLOCK or SAVEAS command to proceed. Use SAVEAS command to keep the current drawing properties, page setups and other settings in the new drawing(s). Use WBLOCK command for better performance.
Then, you enter a prefix and a suffix text to name the target drawings. Hit enter and drawings will be created from all layouts, saved in the current folder.
Batch process multiple drawings with JTB SmartBatch.
See also our app page.
Note: This app uses a custom installer (and not the standard App Store installer).
This add-on is amazing ans imple to use. A must have for people who work in multiple sheet drawing files.
It really solve my problem, Im curious though, it says
"This will help to save all layouts to separate drawings. Optionally bind xrefs and purge"
is it possible to have this as well? the option to bind xrefs then purge? hoping to have this, it will complete the process. cheers!!!
Use the LayoutsToDwgsBindPurge command.
Very good, thanks!
It is my want！
Thanks Steven!
it is a useful tool, if I run in Civil 3d this msg will come to every dwg need to select yes/no in AutoCAD no issue
Do you use the Wblock or Saveas option? Try the other one and see if you get the same dialog box.
Hi!
It do the job perfectly, but doesn't export drawing properties. Then, i have problems with fields.
What can i do?
Thanks!
This is from the description: Page Setups and custom DWG properties (DWGPROPS command) are deleted by Autodesk® AutoCAD® in the process as the WBLOCK command is being used in the app. If there is a need to keep Page Setups and/or custom drawing properties contact us for a special version.
VERY NICE APP!
It do the job perfectly, but the exported new drawings names are in capital letters , can it be adjested to follow layout letters case. thank you so much
Sam, I've not seen this issue. Can you email us a sample drawing and also let us know what AutoCAD version you have?
How does it know what version to write out? Is the source code accessible so I can add a browse to for saving instead of defaulting to the original drawings location?
Hi Christi, the version is the same version as if you manually would WBLOCK out the whole drawing to a file. Source code is included so you can modify as needed or we can help.
It is a useful tools, but there are some bugs. When I use it ,the Roughness of my drawings will bu lost in the separate drawings! Could you solve it? I use Autocad mechanical 2016 in CN
Can you send me (info@jtbworld.com) a sample drawing and I will take a look? It might be that this is related to AutoCAD Mechanical but I will see if I can figure it out.
Pasas cada layout a archivos por separado
