AutoCAD Xref





Xrefs is a powerful tool that let you view another drawing within your current drawing without actually inserting that other drawing.

Steps:
1. Type XREF.
2. Select Attach DWG.
3. Browse for the drawing you want to xref.
4. Select Open.
5. Pick Overlay or Attachment. ( An overlay will not include any of the nested X-ref's that the file may contain.)
6. Select the path. (choose Relative Path instead of Full Path)
7. Select insertion point, scale and rotation.

8. Click OK.

Note: Before XREF you need to check the UCS of the drawing.
