NOTE The Enhanced Attribute Editor also lets you add automatically updatable fields (such as a date and time stamp or other
project information) to an annotation by right-clicking the current Value setting and clicking Insert Field (or Edit Field, if the
annotation already includes such a field). This will display the Field dialog box. For more information, see “Use Fields in Text”
in AutoCAD Help.
Keynoting Tools
Keynoting is a consistent way of annotating the different types of drawings in a set of construction documents to
identify building materials or to provide special instructions or explanations. AutoCAD Architecture provides a flexible
tool-based method of inserting keynotes that are linked to a keynote database and thus can be modified globally as
well as individually. This method supports both reference keynoting (where the keynote key corresponds to a section
in an accompanying specification and may appear on different drawings) and sheet keynoting (where keynote keys
are sequentially numbered for each drawing).
AutoCAD Architecture supplies pre-specified keynotes for its size-specific default detail components and for architectural
objects that represent assemblies with multiple components (for example, 8” CMU wall). For variable-size objects and
material definitions, a keynote classification group is pre-specified, and you specify a size when the keynote is inserted.
For detail components, these keynotes and groups are based on the widely used MasterFormat 2004 standard maintained
by the Construction Specifications Institute (CSI). For assemblies, the CSI Uniformat standard is used. However, because
the software accommodates multiple keynote databases, it also supports other common or locally developed keynoting
systems, so your localized version of AutoCAD Architecture may vary. Whatever the source of the keynote, you can
also associate it with a particular object style or material definition (see “
Specifying Keynotes
” on page 1971). This lets
you use the keynote insertion tools on individual components of an object or on linework in two-dimensional (2D)
sections or elevations. In cases where no keynotes are pre-specified, you select a keynote from the available database(s).
You can also configure a keynote insertion tool to insert a particular keynote, regardless of the insertion point (see
“
Inserting or Editing an AEC Keynotes Field
” on page 1960).
In addition to tools for inserting keynotes (derived from the basic annotation tool), the software includes tools for
generating keynote legends that list selected keynotes from one or more drawing sheets and help you to quickly locate
all instances of a particular keynote. You can also generate a keynote legend for a drawing prior to inserting keynotes;
in this case the legend would include all keynotes that are likely to be used.
Other keynoting features include the ability to toggle the format for all keynotes within a drawing to display keys only,
notes only, or both keys and notes. An Object Inspect tool lets you view keynote text without having to toggle the
format or zoom in.
NOTE The keynoting feature supports automatic updating of keynotes to reflect changes to the corresponding entry in the
keynote database. However, automatic updating of a keynote to reflect changes to a keynoted object is not currently supported.
Changes in objects can be addressed using the re-keynoting option described in
“
Viewing and Editing Keynotes in a
Drawing
” on page 1968
.
Configuring the Annotation Tool for Keynoting
AutoCAD Architecture provides several default tools for inserting keynotes into a drawing. If your software has not
been customized locally, these tools can be found on the sample Annotation tool palette. They are also accessible from
the Documentation Tool Catalog in the Content Browser and can be copied to any tool palette using the i-drop
®
feature.
These keynote insertion tools are derived from the basic annotation tool and can be further customized through the
Tool Properties worksheet available from their context menus.
The mechanism that allows the annotation tool to insert keynotes is the AEC Keynotes field. This is an Mtext object
that specifies the type and format of the keynote annotation to be inserted and includes an automatically updatable
field value that serves as a placeholder for the actual keynote. The keynote itself is obtained from a database, and can
be pre-specified for a selected object or selected manually from the Select Keynote dialog box. For more information,
see “
Using Keynote Insertion Tools
” on page 1961. In cases where the same keynote needs to be inserted frequently, you
can configure the AEC Keynotes field to specify a particular keynote rather than serve as a placeholder.
For reference keynote insertion tools, the AEC Keynotes field value is specified as the Default text property on the Tool
Properties worksheet. For a sheet keynote insertion tool, the AEC Keynotes field value is specified as an attribute
definition within the block identified by the Symbol and Symbol location properties. In either case, you can insert an
AEC Keynotes field or edit an existing one using the Field dialog box. For specific instructions, see “
Inserting or Editing
an AEC Keynotes Field
” on page 1960.
