AutoCAD XREFS. A beginner's tutorial 

The nice feature about AutoCad is the lessons never die. Thank you for over ten years ago, making this very thorough explanation of Xrefs! You made my life so much easier!! Well done, Sir.

OMG thanks so much. I recently graduated and they never talked about xrefs in college...now I'm working and I looked so dumb at work for not knowing this. Thanks so much.

This are the kind of creature we need in this life,someone who havent used AutoCAD before must understand this,very concise,brief,no too much talking,straight to the business..May God bless you for changing people lives for good.

As someone who's a beginner, this was clear, concise, and straight to the point.

At first, I thought that using XREFS make your work complicated. Now I understand. Thank you!

oh this improved my autocad workflow by a hundred times better! I'm working with autocad 2022 and this tutorial is still relevant! thank you!

This is still a really good, concise and informative tutorial. I need to use xrefs for the first time and this told me everything I needed to know. Thank you!

Outstanding tutorial. Thank you for taking the time to make it!

thank you A LOT

Thank you

good vid

Good information

HI. Very useful info. Please explain how to place that xref dwg in xyz, I need to keep that as a reference point. Thank you

Make sure that both drawings are at the same scale. You may need to scale the XREF up. The figure of 0.0394 suggestes that the XREF has been drawn in feet & inches and I presume you're working in metric. I'd suggest scaling the XREF file up by a factor of 25.4 (1 divided by 0.0394 = 25.4) and that should solve your problem. You might want to take a look at my video on how to convert Imperial drawings to metric. Once you've scaled your drawing correctly it should insert ok.

TY

After binding a layer, can we know whether it has been binded or not?

is there some way when doing binding, to explode the block? So if I want to copy something that everything does not copy, just the few items I want to select.

Good Stuff

Thankssssssssssssss alottttttttttttttttttttttttt dearrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Please explain auxiliary view

I am trying to use xref but Block unit is by default coming to be in mm and the scale by default is coming to be 0.0394. I am unable to change it on the dialogue box. I am using AutoCAD 2013. Any suggestion?

how to download some free blocks ,like tree,etc...........thanks

full path and relative path are basically if you and your team are working on PC's and Mac's correct?

3 times did not start, but then it worked
