Hi all Co-Grabber's, This is Sourbh.
XREF – AutoCAD tutorial: Xref is the most useful command from AutoCAD. If you are going to use the software for work or you are looking to advance further, you will need to know how to use the xref command. It is absolutely necessary. And I will show you why. Xref is used to cross reference plans and objects because you want to minimize.
Here is the requested tutorials for Xref Explanation by one student here in Grab-cad.
- An additional problem can be to do with drive paths. Say you have an XREF that resides in W: CAD Projects xrefs, but you also have a Z drive mapped such that Z: Projects xrefs refers to the same folder. If the XREF was originally loaded using the W: CAD Projects xrefs path, then AutoCAD® usually expects the drawing to be on the W drive.
- But also, you do not need the Transaction for this. It's not necessary. I created my own sample and tested it. If you need me to post that, let me know. The problem was that the xNode had a null database due to the fact that the Xref was not resolved. You have to do that manually with the line above.
- The xref becomes a 'snapshot in time', and any changes made later will not be brought in automatically. The biggest difference I have found between Insert and Bind is the duplication of layers and other named items. Xrefs can have their layer features changed, as in all layers a dimmer color or thinner line weight.

Some of the Sentences and Explanation were Referenced from Internet Resources, and also from Previous college's Lecture notes during my Academic session.
