AutoCAD Tips & Tutorials
Find all named objects in a drawing
For troubleshooting or collaborative purposes, you may need to know the named objects in your drawings, that is:
- Blocks
- Dimension styles
- Layers
- Linetypes
- Materials
- Table styles
- Text styles
- UCSs
- Viewports (really viewport configurations)
- Views
- Plot styles (which you see only if you're using named plot styles)
You can see all your named objects by using the RENAME command. Choose Format > Rename, choose the type of named object you want, and you'll see all of its items.
Of course, you can also use this command to rename objects; it's very handy for that purpose.
Unfortunately, while you can select all of the named objects for a category, you can't copy them to the Clipboard. It would be nice to have a way to export a list of all the named objects. Perhaps a reader has a suggestion?
