On the tenth day of CADD Care, the CADD team gave to me… a quick way to convert repeating geometry into Blocks!
The new AutoCAD command BCONVERT enables AutoCAD 2025 users to convert non-block geometry into block geometry. This new command will be an excellent companion to the existing PDF Import Command as blocks formerly part of a DWG file do not survive conversion to PDF. To convert repeating non-block geometry into block geometry, an AutoCAD 2025 user will type BCONVERT, press enter, and then select the geometry to convert into blocks. AutoCAD will identify additional instances of this geometry and allow the user to convert this geometry into a new or an existing block using the Convert dialog box. This command will quickly become a new favorite of many AutoCAD users, including this one! Happy AutoCAD everyone!
Check back tomorrow to discover more tips and tricks the CADD Team has lined up for the rest of the Twelve Days of CADD Care!
