If you’re tasked with managing your company’s AutoCAD needs, you’re familiar with the challenges. To paraphrase Tolstoy, we might say … while all happy CAD managers are alike, every frustrated CAD manager is unhappy in his or her own way. If you’re in the latter group, check out this Autodesk University 2015 class for deploying AutoCAD using AutoLISP. An AU 2015 favorite, the class was recorded and is presented here, in its entirety, with presentation materials and handouts.
