One Quick AutoCAD Win Before You Log Off for the Long Weekend
Instant TEXT Improvements
Hey All,
I know it’s the Thanksgiving long weekend for many of you (unfortunately not for me, we already had “Canadian Thanksgiving” hah), so I’ll keep this one short, I know you’re either heading out, cooking, or just trying to squeeze in some last-minute tasks before relaxing.
While I may not have a long weekend or get to partake in some turkey dinner, I am looking forward to some football and ideally some high scoring for my fantasy teams!! 🏈.
But before I forget, I’ve got a quick tip and a must-watch video to level up your AutoCAD game before the weekend!
Quick Tip of the Week:
Use MATCHPROP (Match Properties) for Text
If you’ve ever had a mix of random fonts, sizes, and styles in your drawing, this one’s a life-saver.
Just type MATCHPROP, select a properly styled piece of text, and apply its settings to other notes instantly.
It works with dimensions, blocks, and tons of other objects too, a huge time-saver!
