Establish Relationships on an AutoCAD Reference File - Intergraph Smart 3D - Help - Hexagon

You can establish relationships between elements in the current document and elements within an AutoCAD object that you inserted.

To use this functionality, you must install the Translators option.

1. Place an AutoCAD reference file on the drawing sheet. You can use one of several methods.

   • Place MicroStation Information in the Document

   • Place AutoCAD Information in the Document

   You should set Maintain Relationships on the Tools menu. If you want to see the relationship handles, set Relationship Handles on the Tools menu.

2. Establish relationships between elements in the object and elements in the document in the same manner you would any elements.

   • Make Elements Equal Make Elements Parallel

If you change the position of elements in an AutoCAD document that is linked to your current document and then update the link in the document, the relationships will not be valid any more.
