Tips on using this forum..

(1) Explain your problem, don't simply post "This isn't working". What were you doing when you faced the problem? What have you tried to resolve - did you look for a solution using "Search" ? Has it happened just once or several times?

(2) It's also good to get feedback when a solution is found, return to the original post to explain how it was resolved so that more people can also use the results.

Chris,

The site you recommended "http://www.cadtutor.net/forum/" is excellent.

Others,

Autocad is a drawing program. However, like Primavera, the program has tremendous depth, with many differnt ways to do things.

For me, finding a site like Planning Planet really made a big difference in my use of Prima Vera.

It looks like "cadtutor.net" may offer the same style of friendly, expert advice on using AutoCad.

Phil

Hi PPAdmin,

Draughting is definitely a diferrent discipline, however, it would be interesting to hear their views, and for them to understand ours, the site is excellent, and could be made to cater for them, and maybe some of the other associated disciplines connected to planning, it would be a good idea, to seperate the membership by disciplines.

Regards

Philip

Hi there,

We were led to believe that AutoCad is more of a drawing / drafting tool than a planning package. It does not seem appropriate to add a separate forum area for this.

Does anyone have any strong objections, or do we have the wrong information about the uses and purpose of Autocad?

Phil,

I don’t know whether this will be any use to you but it might be worth a look.
