This is a per drawing setting.<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-size:100%;\">Issues from Previous Version Drawings<\/span><\/h2>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Previous version drawings that include slabs or roof slabs with boolean  additions will need to have the appropriate shrink wrap component turned on in  order to display the full volume of the object.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Slabs that contain boolean operations will be converted to interference  conditions with additive interferences being applied to the slab&#8217;s shrink wrap  body display component. By default, slab and roof slabs in AutoCAD Architecture  2008 have the model shrink wrap body display component turned off, so this  option will need to be turned on in order to see additive interferences from  legacy slabs.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Project Standards in AutoCAD Architecture 2008 will not operate when either  the standards drawings or project drawings have not been promoted to the 2007  format.<\/span> When a project is promoted from a previous version to the current  drawing and project format, Projects Standards automatically assigns new  versions to many objects and it will be necessary to synchronize the project  again. Prior to this action, the standards drawings should be opened, a new  version comment should be added through either Style Manager or Display Manager  and then the standards drawings should be saved in 2007 format.<\/p>\n<p>If an  entire project remains unpromoted, the analyzing project drawings dialog will  appear blank with an empty progress meter. This condition will clear once the  entire project has been processed.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>More info from the 2008 Readme file&#8230; The road to 2008 seems to run thru 2007 AutoCAD 2007 File Format For best results, it is recommended that drawings in a previous to 2007 format be opened and saved in the 2007 format before attempting to combine them, through Block Insert or Xref, with 2007 format [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_uf_show_specific_survey":0,"_uf_disable_surveys":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[14,19],"tags":[],"series":[],"class_list":["post-345","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-autocad-2008","category-upgrades"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.caddmanager.com\/CMB\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/345","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.caddmanager.com\/CMB\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.caddmanager.com\/CMB\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.caddmanager.com\/CMB\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.caddmanager.com\/CMB\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=345"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.caddmanager.com\/CMB\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/345\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.caddmanager.com\/CMB\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=345"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.caddmanager.com\/CMB\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=345"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.caddmanager.com\/CMB\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=345"},{"taxonomy":"series","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.caddmanager.com\/CMB\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/series?post=345"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
