Maybe, after all these years, time has come to try a new kind of CAD Standard.
To achieve a State-of-the-Art CAD Standard is not a book or an endless series of tedious tasks needed to turn your data into CAD-Standard-Compliant; But this is only my basic assumption.

On the contrary, I believe that with less clicks, easier work and faster results, all of the data must be Standard Compliant from “Square 1”.
This achievement – anything but trivial – is the result of several Paradigm Shifts:
- The first one is switching from mixed use of commands, properties, features, etc. into exclusive use of Tools (Managed AutoCAD Features).
. . . . . . . . . . . - The second is my best (practice) collection of software parameters (AutoCAD Setvars) that might be implemented into files by a click of a button, turning non-standard files into CAD-Standard-Compliant with – “No-Sweat”.
. . . . . . . . . . . - The 3rd part is strongly connected to Outputs (where the presence of the CAD Standard becomes visible). Standardising and automating by the use of Sheet Set (AutoCAD-Project) Management.
. . . . . . . . . . .
All these main components will deliver Standard Data that is not “specific-end-user-recognisable”. Those are the components that consist in the Standard Environment Workspace.
One way to Achieve a State-of-the-Art CAD Standard is all about the knowledge
I wrote “not a book or an endless series of tedious tasks” so what do i suggest? In order to avoid books, booklets and/or other documents to instruct the CAD User on each and every Standard, built-in video integral with the Tools within the Tool Palettes. All these videos are in the context of the specific tool.
Each User, whether a veteran or a rookie, can watch, read and listen on how to create/edit data using the tools without wasting energy on Layers, Styles and Software Parameters whatsoever.
OK, so I caught your interest…Can i Have your attention?
While trying to Achieve a State-of-the-Art CAD Standard, the question is – “WHAT’S THE NEXT STEP?”
There are two main options:
The first, is to let me create, manage, deploy and maintain the CAD Standard Environment of your choice
The second is to learn to do it in-house
