Custom Tab (Drawing Properties Dialog Box)
Assigns custom properties to the drawing. For example, you could create a
custom property called Project and assign the actual project name as the value.
To assign the same custom properties to a group of drawings, create the custom
properties in a drawing template file.
Custom properties are displayed in the list of field names in the Field dialog
box. You also have access to the properties data using programming interfaces,
such as AutoLISP
®
.
Custom Properties
Lists names and values of custom properties for the current drawing.
Add

and a value for the new custom property. The name must be unique. The
value can be left blank.
Delete
Deletes the custom property that is selected in the list.
NOTE If you delete a custom property that is used in a field, the field displays
#### the next time it is updated.
