Dialog box Match properties

db_ath_matchprop

In the section AutoCAD properties you select the AutoCAD-specific properties which you wish to transfer to other objects. These properties are valid both for AutoCAD and for ATHENA objects.

In the section ATHENA properties you define by tick boxes which ATHENA-specific properties you wish to transfer to other objects. The properties are not valid for AutoCAD objects. When you select an AutoCAD object as the source object, this section is masked out.

With standard parts the geometry is only transferred for identical standards. For example, it is not possible to convert a metric screw into a sheet screw.
