Tips & Tricks
If you have .NET code that worked with older versions you need to recompile.

Readme
Installation
Do not attempt to install the product by double clicking on the application's MSI
file, as the software will not be installed properly. Instead, use the Setup

executable.
If AutoCAD Architecture 2009 is installed on a network that uses roaming
profiles, you may receive an error message on logoff when the computer is
synchronizing the user account to the server. While synchronizing the user data
folder to the server you may get an error message saying:
"Offline Files: Unable to make '2009 AEC-Keynotes-Assemblies
(Imperial).mdb' available offline on <\\servername\home\username\autodesk\my
projects\sample project\>. Files of this type cannot be made available offline."
This occurs because the Sample Project in My Documents contains a Microsoft
Access database. The warning can be safely ignored.
If the product is installed with Shared Configurable Folders on a machine
running Vista that is bound to a different domain than the Shared location, the
uninstall may halt when it tries to establish access to them. This error can be
resolved by disabling the User Account Control. Please refer to Microsoft Help
for directions on making this change.
After performing a reinstall on an existing installation of AutoCAD Architecture
2009, the Express Tools pulldown menu may not be visible. The menu file itself
should still be loaded, in which case the command Expressmenu will restore the
pulldown menu.

Performance
Turn off the InfoCenter balloon for Workspaces to reduce the time to launch
AutoCAD Architecture.
Invoke the WSSETTINGS command and enable the "Do not save changes to
workspaces" option to reduce the time to close drawings and to reduce the time
to shut down AutoCAD Architecture as well. The improvement will be
especially noticeable when the application is configured and installed with
shared folders on a network drive (for details, styles, templates, etc.)
Rollover Tooltips
When AutoCAD Architecture is installed on a 64-bit operating system, the
mouse cursor may hesitate and become "sticky" when hovering or rolling over
detail components. This behavior can be eliminated by turning off the rollover
tooltips for detail components:
1. Type CUI at the command line.
2. In the CUI dialog under "Customizations in All CUI Files," select Rollover
Tooltips.
3. In the Object Type List, select "Detail Components."
4. Uncheck the three properties listed. (Type, Layer, and Component
Information)
5. Apply and OK out of the CUI dialog.
6. Select to remove the object from the Object Type List in the task dialog when
it is presented.

Rollover tooltips will still be available for Detail Components but they will only
report AutoCAD entity information (e.g., Block Reference, Polyline, and Hatch.)
To re-enable the Detail Component specific data, reverse the steps, edit the
Object Type List, include Detail Components, and check the three properties
listed.
Content Browser
Dragging and dropping a package from Content Browser to the Tool Palette will
result in a lengthly delay when AutoCAD Architecture is installed on Windows
Vista. This delay only occurs the first time the action is performed during a
session.

minor limitations in certain features in AutoCAD Architecture 2009

Scaling Annotation Content
Updating legacy annotative content is outlined in the AutoCAD Architecture
2009 Help. Browse the AutoCAD Architecture User's Guide to
Documentation > Annotation and Keynoting Tools > Annotation Scaling >
Updating Legacy Annotative Objects
NOTE: To ensure proper scaling, set the current annotation scale to 1:1 prior to
updating legacy annotative content.
Scale
AutoCAD Architecture 2009 has MsLtScale set to 1 by default. When opening a
drawing that uses this value in a previous release, the LtScale will need to be
manually set to maintain linetype scale visual fidelity.
Aec Dimensions in AutoCAD Architecture 2009 use a DimScale value of 96 by
default. If opened in a previous release and viewed at a scale other than 1/8" =
1-0" the DimScale will need to be changed to the appropriate scale.
Multi-View Blocks
Multi-View Blocks do not respect the block setting "Match block orientation to
layout."
If a Multi-View Block with more than one Annotation Scale Representation is
opened in a previous release and is moved, all of its Annotation Scale
Representations will be moved when the drawing is reopened in AutoCAD
Architecture 2009.
Dimensions
Adding a height value to the text style changes the height of text within AEC
Dimensions but not AutoCAD dimensions.
It is not possible to summon the Dimension Style Manager dialog via the
Display Properties dialog if the Display Properties dialog was accessed using the

Display tab of the Properties Palette. Instead, to access the Dimension Style
manager, select Dimension Style from the Format pulldown menu.
Using the Apply Component Override or Modify Component Override grip(s)
while editing component dimension points within walls may add a new
component dimension point instead of moving the existing component
dimension point. If this occurs, remove the unwanted component dimension
point by clicking the associated Remove Extension Line grip.
Drawing Management
AutoCAD Architecture 2009 installed on 64-bit Windows XP may crash while
loading a project if the project bulletin board contains the <v:shapetype ..> node.
To avoid this, edit the file and use the standard HTML image tag <img ..>
instead.
When post linking views to sheets wait a few seconds before moving the mouse
from the drawing editor to project navigator. Otherwise the post link may not
complete.
Overlaying an xref using project navigator when the xref is already present but
unloaded will result in multiple xref insertions and consequently overlapping
geometries. If a drawing shows defect markers even though the geometry seems
correct, check to see if multiple copies of the same xref are present; if they are,
delete them. (Note that duplicate xrefs aren't displayed in the xref manager.
Instead, use quick select to select external references and verify in the property
palette that the correct number of xrefs is present.)
Graphics and Display
Controls
Make sure the ViewCube and SteeringWheel UI elements do not overlap, or the
application may crash when the SteeringWheel control is clicked.
AutoCAD Architecture 2009 may crash after selecting a visual style or a named
view from 3D orbit with the ribbon open. To avoid this, close the ribbon or exit
3D orbit mode first.
The application may crash if the mouse wheel is used to pan shortly after the
SteeringWheel control is used to enter orbit mode. To reduce the likelihood of
this happening, pan before entering orbit mode, or pan more slowly.
Spaces
The graphics for previewing a generated space may occasionally be incorrect for
highly complex geometries. However, the space will still be generated correctly.
Style Manager
If AutoCAD Architecture 2009 is installed on a PC running 64-bit Windows
Vista with an Nvidia graphics card, the style manager's embedded viewer may
not update correctly after the style manager dialog is resized. However the
viewer will be sized correctly after the style manager is dismissed and

relaunched.
Do not use the filter button in the design rules tab for display theme styles when
AutoCAD Architecture is installed on 64-bit Windows Vista, or the tab will be
visually corrupted. This limitation is not present if the DisplayThemeStyleEdit
command is used instead.
Publishing
Use the DWF format when publishing AEC object Property Data Sets to
password protected files; if DWFx is used, it will not be possible to select AEC
objects in Autodesk Design Review. If password protection is not employed
either the DWF or DWFx may be used.
The Publish command available in the File menu (and at the commandline) will
publish Sample Project sheets in color. To get the correct black and white output,
use the Project Navigator's Publish to DWF, Publish to DWFx, or Publish to
Plotter command instead. This behavior is not present in other projects.
Spaces
Generate Spaces
Spaces created with the Space Generate tool will be associative, whether or not
the Associative property is set to No in the tool. The space can be set as nonassociative after its creation via the properties palette.
Calculation Standard
The boundary offset for curtain walls will be generated according to the
following rules:
The net, usable and gross boundaries will be generated as one segment, offset to
the base boundary of the curtain wall. In order to produce the correct offset
results, the boundaries may need to be manually offset to the preferred location.
The boundaries for net, usable and gross area may not be offset correctly for
curtain walls which reference a base curve.
When spaces are generated using a calculation standard, the boundaries for
usable and gross area may not be offset correctly for walls with sweeps. To
resolve this, use the manual offset boundary type and manually edit the
boundaries to the correct location.
SIS Standard: The usable offset boundary may fail to offset correctly when a
column or mass element is located in the corner of a wall connection. To work
around this issue, use the manual offset boundary type and manually edit the
boundaries to the correct location.
Legacy datasets
When drawings from previous versions are opened, spaces may disappear or
display a solution tip after the 'Automatically update associative spaces' setting
is enabled in the Options dialog. This may happen for spaces that have been

generated from collinear surfaces. To fix this first select all the associative
spaces in the drawing and update them using the command Update Space
Geometry, which is available on the right-click context menu. Then enable the
'Automatically update associative spaces' setting in the Options dialog.
Walls
Cleanups
Wall cleanups may temporarily fail after an xref is unloaded and reloaded, if the
xref contains walls that cleanup with the host drawing and/or other xrefs. This
can usually be fixed by invoking ObjRelUpdate. If this does not work, closing
and reopening the drawing will always correct the cleanup.
A cleanup error can occur when a short wall segment lies within the cleanup
radius of another wall. After reducing the cleanup radius, run "ObjRelUpdate" to
see updated cleanup results.
Endcaps
Wall endcap linework may become visible when walls on different elevations
cleanup at a corner. Disabling the wall's Below Cut Plane (or in some cases, the
Above Cut Plane) display component visibility will remove these artifacts.
User Interface
Using the options dialog to switch profiles may cause unwanted UI changes
such as the elimination of the Quick Access Toolbar. If this becomes a common
issue, switch profiles by exiting the application and restarting it with the
appropriate command or shortcut instead. The UI can be restored to its proper
state by invoking the CUI command and setting one of the workspaces current.
Using the options dialog to switch to a different profile may cause toolbars and
pulldown menus to load incorrectly if the profile was not previously used. To
avoid this, launch each desktop shortcut once immediately following
installation.
The Quick Access Toolbar may fail to load correctly if AutoCAD Architecture
2009 is configured to use network licensing and the network is temporarily
unavailable during application startup (forcing a second launch attempt.) The UI
can be restored to its proper state by invoking the CUI command and setting one
of the workspaces current.
Do not attempt to reset a profile that is set current, or the profile may become
corrupted causing the application to behave unexpectedly. To restore the profile
to a usable state, set another profile current and reset the first profile again.
Miscellaneous
Action Recorder
While the AutoCAD Action Recorder can be accessed through the CAD
Manager pulldown, full functionality is only available through the AutoCAD
ribbon UI element. To configure the Action Recorder ribbon panel in AutoCAD

Architecture, follow these steps:

Enter the command RIBBON to invoke the ribbon.
Enter the command CUI to invoke the customize user interface dialog.
In the left hand pane, expand the Ribbon Tabs and Ribbon Panels nodes. Drag
the action recorder panel from the Ribbon Panels node to one of the tab nodes
under Ribbon Tabs (e.g., Home - 2D.)
OK to accept changes in the CUI dialog. At this point, the Action Recorder
should be present in the ribbon.
ExportLayout
Export drawings to AutoCAD before attempting to invoke and use the
ExportLayout command.
gbXML
Performing Export to gbXML from within a Construct may cause error
messages to display when the XML file is imported to Green Building Studio.
To prevent error messages from displaying, open the Construct as a drawing
outside of Project Navigator before running Export to gbXML.
Tapered Interior walls for Non-Associative adjacent spaces export to gbxml as
Exterior walls. To prevent this from happening, create the Spaces so that the
sides of the adjacent spaces are parallel to each other.
Export to gbXML does not support openings on curved non-associative freeform
spaces.
IFC Export
IFC Export will only export only the components of objects that are On in the
Model Display Set. IFC Export does not use the current display when exporting
the file. To verify the visibility of an object, open the Display Manager and
browse Sets and Representations by Object.
Both wall and slab objects that have overlapping components will be exported
without their named components. The components are combined into one called
"Unnamed." The overall wall or slab geometry is maintained to the shrinkwrap
or outline extents only.
Keynotes
Cells in a Sheet Keynote Legend containing sheet keynote blocks may become
invalid after using the Block Editor or the Block command to change to one of
the block definitions. To correct this problem, save and reopen the drawing.
Care must be exercised when updating keynote legends that exist in previous
version drawings. If the keynote database that was used to create the Legend is
not present when the legend is updated, all data in the legend will change to
pound symbols (#). To repair this, load the previous version database in the Aec
Content tab of the Options dialog, and then update the legend again. The
keynotes will be restored.
For the Metric profile, the Keynoting tools on the Annotation Sample Palette are
not set up to utilize Multileader functionality. Use the following steps create new
Keynoting tools that use Multileaders:
The Imperial profile must be installed. If you haven't installed Imperial, you can
add it by doing a Reinstall > Add/Remove. The profile can be removed once the

tools have been accessed.

Run ACA from the Metric profile.
Open the Sample Tool Palette and navigate to the Document group > Annotation
tab.
Open the Content Browser and navigate to the Documentation Tool Catalog Imperial > Keynotes.
Drag the Reference Keynote and the Reference Keynote (Straight Leader) tools
to the tool palette.
Open the properties for each of these tools, set the Multileader style location to
use the Leader Symbols(Metric).dwg (browse to the Metric Styles drawings in
your content).
Open the Leader Symbols(Metric).dwg and switch to Model Space.
Use each of the new tools to verify that -AecDtlAnnoMultileaderAdd is called at
the command line.
Place any Keynote in the drawing, save and close.
Now the Imperial profile may be removed, if you wish.
You may want to place these new tools in the Content Browser > Documentation
Tool Catalog - Metric > Keynotes for future access.
Layers
Note that Layer State functionality replaced Architectural Desktop Layer
Snapshots in AutoCAD Architecture 2008.
To Prevent the Replacement of Layer Snapshots with Layer States, edit the
Windows registry, navigate to
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Autodesk\AutoCAD\R17.2\
ACAD-7004:409\Profiles\Current Profile\General\
and create a new DWORD named BypassSnapshotConversion with value 1.
Note: Always back up the registry before making any changes to it.
It is not possible to create a viewport override for the lineweight of a block set to
ByLayer whose components are set to ByBlock.
Entities in xrefs that have components which use ByLayer linetypes may not
display overridden linetypes per viewport.
Object Viewer
On multi-monitor systems using Hardware Acceleration and different display
settings, dialogs that include the Object Viewer should be kept on the primary
display. This is to guard against various system errors that may otherwise occur.
Reference Edit
Do not use refedit to edit blocks containing property set overrides. Instead, use
the block editor.
Schedules
When attempting use CTRL-select to zoom to an object in a schedule table, the
Selection Preview Cycling panel may display instead. Selecting "Don't show me
this again" restores the Zoom to functionality.

Object IDs will not display correctly in schedule tables on 64-bit operating
systems, and for similar reasons drawing compare will not report differences in
property set data on 64-bit systems. If this functionality is required, install the
application on a 32-bit operating system instead.
VBA
The VBA application object is not supported on 64-bit operating systems. As a
result the following code fragments will not work, even though they do on 32-bit
installations:
'Case 1: Built-in app object
MsgBox AecArchBaseApplication.Caption
'Case 2: New app object
Dim acaApp As New AecArchBaseApplication
acaApp.Init ThisDrawing.Application
MsgBox acaApp.Caption
Instead, instantiate the application object as follows:
Dim acaApp As AecArchBaseApplication
Set acaApp =
ThisDrawing.Application.GetInterfaceObject("AecX.AecArchBaseApplication.
5.7")
acaApp.Init ThisDrawing.Application
MsgBox acaApp.Caption

Compatibility with Previous Releases

Data
Compared to previous releases, AutoCAD Architecture 2009 uses greater
precison when performing internal calculations. Thus there may be minor
differences in reported values compared to earlier versions. This is as designed,
and data reported in the current version is more accurate.
A problem with calculating slab perimeters was fixed in AutoCAD Architecture
2009. As a result the values of certain automatic properties may change. The
new results are correct.
Layers
To be able to reference edit drawings saved from AutoCAD Architecture 2009 in
Autodesk Architectural Desktop 2007, the variable LayerEval needs to be set to
0 in AutoCAD Architecture 2009. This is a per drawing setting.
Spaces
It is not possible to use AutoCAD Architecture 2008 to refedit drawings
containing space objects created in AutoCAD Architecture 2009.
Openings on non-associative curved freeform spaces created in AutoCAD
Architecture 2009 will not be displayed in AutoCAD Architecture 2008.
Openings added outside a surface area in AutoCAD Architecture 2008 will have
different locations when opened in AutoCAD Architecture 2009.

Structural Members
Structural members now support two new properties: volume and true length.
Values for these properties will be displayed as ?? in AutoCAD Architecture
2008 and 2007.
MasterFormat 2004
As of AutoCAD Architecture 2008 the US detail component and keynote
databases use the CSI MasterFormat 2004 standard. Using the Detail
Component/Keynote Database Migration utility to migrate your database
customizations from a database that uses the CSI MasterFormat 95 standard (as
in Architectural Desktop 2007 and previous releases) is not supported. The
migration utility will not properly migrate custom records from the older
databases and may errantly overwrite records in the new databases with CSI
MasterFormat 95 data.
The Detail Component/Keynote Database Migration utility can still be used to
migrate records from one CSI MasterFormat 95 database to another. Note also
that using the Database Migration utility to update an older database with data
from the new CSI Masterformat 2004 database is not supported.
If you want to use a database from Architectural Desktop 2007 or previous
releases with the current release of AutoCAD Architecture 2009, you can load it
as described under Adding a Detail Component Database to Available Databases
or Adding a Keynote Database in the Help. Note that the older database must be
located with its corresponding content, maintaining the folder structure, to
function properly. A details database will not function with the new 2009 US
details content. Likewise, the previous version keynote database will not
function to automatically keynote 2009 US details content, but only detail
components inserted using previous version details or details in previous version
drawings.
Issues with Previous Version Drawings (Prior to AutoCAD 2007)
For best results, it is recommended that drawings in a previous to 2007 format
be opened and saved in the 2007 format before attempting to combine them,
through Block Insert or Xref, with 2007 format drawings.
Previous version drawings that include slabs or roof slabs with boolean additions
will need to have the appropriate shrink wrap component turned on in order to
display the full volume of the object.
Slabs that contain boolean operations will be converted to interference
conditions with additive interferences being applied to the slab's shrink wrap
body display component. By default, slab and roof slabs in AutoCAD
Architecture 2009 have the model shrink wrap body display component turned
off, so this option will need to be turned on in order to see additive interferences
from legacy slabs.
When previous version drawings are opened, a dialog will be displayed with a
warning that saving the drawing will upgrade AEC objects to 2007 format. If a
previous version drawing is opened by double-clicking the file in Windows
Explorer this dialog may be hidden behind the drawing, making AutoCAD
Architecture 2009 appear to have hung; clicking anywhere on the application to

give it focus will make the dialog come to the foreground.

Project Standards in AutoCAD Architecture 2009 will not operate when either
the standards drawings or project drawings have not been promoted to the 2007
format. When a project is promoted from a previous version to the current
drawing and project format, Projects Standards automatically assigns new
versions to many objects. Consequently it will be necessary to synchronize the
project again. Prior to this action, the standards drawings should be opened, and
new version comment should be added through either Style Manager or Display
Manager.
If an entire project remains unpromoted, the analyzing project drawings dialog
will appear blank with an empty progress meter. This condition will clear once
the entire project has been processed.
Promoting a Project for AutoCAD Architecture 2009
The promotion of previous version drawings to 2007 format can be automated
through the use of the following process, which starts with the creation of a
batch (bat) file. Running the batch file makes a complete copy of the project (or
folder that contains previous version drawings), then recursively searches for all
dwg, dwt and dws files contained in this location and finally generates a script
(scr) file. Running the script file results in each of the copied dwg and dwt files
being opened, saved and closed, which results in these files being promoted to
2007 format. If any dws files are contained in the designated folder, their paths
are displayed. These files will need to be manually opened and saved in 2007
format.
For all details see the readme file.

Migration

CUI migration is supported starting with Autodesk Architectural Desktop

2007 and Autodesk Building Systems 2007.

CUI migration from customized menu folder locations is not fully

supported.

MNU and CUI migration from earlier releases (MNU - 2004, 2005 and
CUI - 2006) can be accomplished from the CUI editor's transfer feature.

Workspaces in AutoCAD Architecture/MEP 2009 are maintained and

Workspaces from previous product versions will be migrated as-is, with
only their names changed. Note that migrated Workspace behavior may
change slightly, so migrated Workspaces should be reviewed for
compatibility with the current product. For example, menus may not be
displayed after migration in AutoCAD Architecture/MEP 2009 if the
workspace was the result of a migration from a previous product release.
To restore the display of menus, the following steps could be taken: (This
example assumes the name of the workspace is "Copy of Design1.")

o Set the migrated workspace as the current workspace by selecting

it from the drop-down list on the Workspaces toolbar.
o Enter MENUBAR at the command line and set the value to 1.
The menus should now be displayed.
o Update the migrated workspace:

Select [Save Current As...] from the drop-down list on the

Workspaces toolbar.

In the Save Workspace dialog, select "Copy of Design1"

from the Name drop-down list

Select [Save], then [Replace] when asked to confirm the

replacement of the existing workspace.

The Import/Export migration feature found in AutoCAD 2009 is not

supported in AutoCAD Architecture/MEP 2009.

References to support files/folders within a CUI file will be migrated to

the current products CUI, but the files/folders that they reference must
be accessible. An example of this might be a menu item that refers to a
slide library. Please ensure that the .slb file exists and that the folder
where it resides is included in the support paths. The support paths can
be verified by running the Options command, selecting the Files tab, then
the "+" next to "Support File Search Path."

To maintain the expected customer experience in AutoCAD

Architecture/MEP 2009, certain parameters in the Options dialog will not
be migrated.
