freebutterflyx Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 For most projects we need to cooperate with others. These other companies don't always use the same acad version (sometimes newer and sometimes older). Lets say I use acad 2016 and I use dynamic blocks in my drawing (lets say a rectangle with a custumable width and height, internal partitions,...) and I use this block several times with different dimensions. If I send this drawing to someone who uses acad 2007 (or maybe older), what happens to the dynamic blocks? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReMark Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 Dynamic blocks were introduced in 2006 so saving a drawing to the 2007 file format shouldn't be a problem. Saving to a file format earlier than 2007 the dynamic blocks will appear static (i.e. - in their last configuration). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freebutterflyx Posted September 19, 2017 Author Share Posted September 19, 2017 I just mentioned 2007 as an exemple. I thought about an older version without the dynamic block function. Are the dynamic blocks fully compatible between version lets say 2007 and 2016? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReMark Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 Pre-2006 the blocks will be static as previously mentioned. From 2006 onward I assume they should function as designed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
