Synchronizing a Project with AEC Standards
When you have set up AEC project standards and enabled them, you can synchronize the project with the standards.
For information about setting up AEC standards, see “ Setting up Standard Styles and Display Settings ” on page 337.
Synchronizing a project will synchronize all drawings contained within. Depending on your system setup and project
size, this might take some time. Also, project drawings that are open during the synchronization might not be correctly
synchronized because they will not be able to be saved after the synchronization. In that case, the drawings need to
be closed, and the synchronization repeated.
