If I type in a DC to open up the design center,
00:16
I have the current drawing open
00:19
from our data set
00:21
and I can click on
00:23
blocks.
00:26
I could right click
00:28
and I could
00:29
copy a block from the design center.
00:33
I could right click
00:35
and I could paste it,
00:37
write to
00:38
my toll palate.
00:41
In addition to being able to grab individual blocks,
00:45
you'll also notice
00:47
that there is a command
00:49
where we can right click and choose create tool palate.
00:54
If I click on create tool pallet,
00:56
we can give Autocad a few minutes to grab all of the blocks

and just like that,
01:02
a brand new palette with every single block from that selected drawing
01:07
has been added to this tool palette.
01:10
The tool pallet name is called floor plan sample
01:14
which matches the name of the DWG file that its coming from.
