laranjo123 Posted April 20, 2012 Author Share Posted April 20, 2012 What's xref's anyway lol ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReMark Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 Xref = External reference. Using xrefs helps reduce file size. Say you have a detail that you use quite often. You can xref the detail into ten drawings. If you make a change to the original detail drawing you do not have to change all ten drawings because the detail is an xref. When you open one or all of the drawings the revised detail drawing will automatically update. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JD Mather Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 ...and you might treat xrefs like individual parts or sub-assemblies placed into an assembly. If one file becomes corrupt you don't lose the whole thing. Hope you have back-ups. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
