thanks for the 4rth step command this is very very helpful for me that i save a tons of time.
Before I just sticking with the basic command select all (ctrl+a) then copy (ctrl+c) and paste (ctrl+v) where when you paste it in the drawing the entire groups or joint line were already exploded and you will end up grouping each of them 1 by 1. like all the entire parts. but for now it is very very easy

OMG. Thank you so much. I'd been looking for this for so long. 💖💖

Great tips! I will start implementing them to speed up my workflow. Thanks

Hi, if you need open ADC, you can also type ctrl+2, and it will pop-up...

[adarshkamate]

I just discovered and subscribed to your channel. Nice job!
I just watched you video about copying objects using 4 different methods. I am looking for a method to create a new drawing using the selected and deleted objects created from using the “OVERKILL” command. I need a way to see what OVERKILL deletes. Any ideas?

[kadeemy]

the first method worked very well for me

Can you add an update to this video on how to copy label styles into a new drawing. For example if you updated a label style in one drawing, and then you moved that label into another drawing, if that label name is already in the new drawing you moved it into, it will not update to the modified version of the label style that you updated in the other drawing. So how do you then update the new drawing, with the same label name, into the new updated style of the same label?

Thank you! Great tips as usual.
Sometimes I come across an issue copying dynamic blocks into a new drawings. Occasionally hatches does not show properly on a dynamic block after inserting it into a new drawing. I end up have a partially hatched object. Any idea how to fix it?

Insert Command
Hello Brandon, thanks for the great tip video. We often use the insert command to bring entire drawings into our blank template drawing, but often have fatal errors when inserting the new drawing. Have you seen this and have a method to circumvent the error?

[learningmo]

is there an easy way to copy an entire tab from one dwg to another dwg?

[gurjeetsaini]

Sir whenever I copy drawing from one file to another file scale changes how to fix it please reply 🙏.

Thanks for your easy to follow explanations, one step at a ti. It makes learning less overwhelming!

So in theory you could super impose a first floor lighting plan on a second floor framing plan to identify possible issues you may run into where framers put joist directly on layout
