Civil 3D 2007 Preview – Express Tools

Couple changes you’ll need to be aware of, but most notably, all the layer commands have been removed from the Express Menu and rolled into AutoCAD (most of them, including LMAN, can still be accessed via the command line).

As the commands no longer exist as part of the menu, you won’t find them on an Express Tools Toolbar either. For example, the famous Layer Freeze command has been moved to the AutoCAD “Layers II” toolbar.

(From Help) Some other popular Express Tools have been integrated into the product. The following commands have been added:

CHSPACE
COPYTOLAYER
LAYCUR
LAYDEL
LAYFRZ
LAYISO
LAYLCK
LAYMCH
LAYMCUR
LAYMRG
LAYOFF
LAYOFF
LAYON
LAYTHW
LAYULK
LAYUNISO
LAYVPI
LAYWALK

To access the CHSPACE tool, click Modify menu, “Change Space” or enter CHSPACE on the command line. To access the Layer tools in the product, use the Layers or Layers II toolbar, the Format Layer Tools menu, or enter the command on the command line. For help on the integrated tools, see AutoCAD Help.

Cheers!
