General Update Content
The following defects have been fixed:
General
- The external reference drawing paths are now correct in the Reference Explorer of Desktop Connector when uploading drawings to Autodesk Construction Cloud using the Autodesk DWG Migration for Docs tool.
- In a complex drawing file, when using editing commands like ERASE and selecting objects, the zoom area box size adjusts and follows the cursor movement, functioning like the ZOOM command (Dynamic option).
- After editing, the value and text of dimensions remain aligned in the middle location as originally created.
- Underlined text appears as a single underline in the PDF output when the PDFSHX system variable is set to 2.
- Some custom objects from Plant 3D are plotted to the correct layers when using the AutoCAD PDF printer.
