Your dealer can offer you independently developed applications that can further tailor
AutoCAD to your needs.
Overview of Customization
AutoCAD can be customized in simple ways. For example, you can change the
directory structure or create a custom title block to use on a layout. If you want
to change the interface further, you can edit the CUIx file and use DIESEL
statements to create custom commands.
You can also use a number of powerful application programming interfaces
(APIs) to add to and modify AutoCAD to suit your needs.
The list that follows is arranged from least to most complex:
■ Organize files. You can organize program, support, and drawing files. For
example, you can make a separate folder for each project that includes only
the support files that project needs.
■ Customize Tool Palettes. You can create a tool by dragging objects from
your drawing onto a tool palette. You can create a tool palette by
right-clicking on the Tool Palettes title bar and selecting New Palette. For
information about customizing tool palettes, see “Customize Tool Palettes”
in the User's Guide.
■ Create custom drawing templates (DWTs). You can create custom drawing
templates to use when creating a new drawing. Drawing templates are used
to store the layers, blocks, and styles that you might use across all your
drawings.
■ Create custom publishing templates. Use templates to define common
parameters when you publish a drawing using the Publish to Web wizard.
1
■ Run external programs and utilities from within AutoCAD. You can, for
example, copy a disk or delete a file from within AutoCAD by adding the
appropriate external command to the program parameters (PGP) file,
acad.pgp.
■ Define command aliases. You can define simple abbreviations, or aliases,
for frequently used commands from within AutoCAD by adding the
command to the PGP file acad.pgp. For example, you might want to start
the BLOCK command by entering b.
■ Create custom linetypes, hatch patterns, shapes, and text fonts. You can
create linetypes, hatch patterns, shapes, and text fonts that conform to
your company standards and working methods.
■ Customize the user interface. The CUIx file controls many aspects of the
user interface, including the behavior of your pointing device buttons and
the functionality and appearance of pull-down, tablet, and image tile
menus, toolbars, and accelerator keys. You can edit or create a CUIx file
to add commands or combine commands and assign them to a menu,
toolbar, or other location.
■ Customize the status line. You can use the DIESEL string expression
language and the MODEMACRO system variable to provide additional
information at the status line, such as the date and time, system variable
settings, or retrievable information using AutoLISP®.
■ Automate repetitive tasks by writing scripts. A script is an ASCII text file
containing commands that are processed like a batch file when you run
the script. For example, if a set of drawings needs to be plotted a certain
way, you can write a script that opens each drawing, hides and displays
various layers, and issues PLOT commands.
You can use scripts with slides to create automated presentations like those
used at trade shows. A slide is a “snapshot” of the drawing area that cannot
be edited. Slides can also be used in image tile menus and dialog boxes.
■ Record action macros. Action macros are files that contain a series of
commands and command options that allow you to perform repetitive
tasks. Action macros are created using the Action recorder and are similar
in concept to script files. Unlike some of the other methods of customizing
AutoCAD, you do not need to learn a special syntax or programming
language to record action macros.
In addition to the methods described in the Customization Guide, there are
application programming interfaces (APIs) available for customizing AutoCAD.
2 | Chapter 1 Basic Customization
Introduction to Programming Interfaces on page 425 briefly describes these
APIs and provides cross-references to more information.

■ Overview of AutoLISP Automatic Loading on page 436
■ “Specify Search Paths and File Locations” in the User's Guide
AutoCAD uses support files for purposes such as storing customization
definitions, loading AutoLISP and ObjectARX applications, and describing
text fonts.
AutoCAD® uses support files for purposes such as storing customization
definitions and describing text fonts.
The default directory structure for the AutoCAD program and support files is
designed to efficiently organize those files into logical groups. If this
organization does not suit your needs, you can change it. However, some
applications look for certain files in specific locations, and you should verify
that your modifications do not conflict with the requirements of those
applications. Without the full path, including drive and directory, AutoCAD
can locate only those files that are found in the library search path.
NOTE The location of the support folder changed in AutoCAD 2004.
The location of local customizable files is stored in the LOCALROOTPREFIX
system variable. The location of roamable customizable files is stored in the
ROAMABLEROOTPREFIX system variable. If a network supports roaming,
customizable files in the user's roaming profile are available on the machine
the user is logged onto.
4 | Chapter 1 Basic Customization
The following LISP script creates the CUSTFILES command, which launches
Windows® Explorer in the correct folder.
The library search path specifies where the program searches for files when
you do not specify a full path name, as follows:
■ Current directory. (This is typically determined by the “Start In” setting
in your shortcut icon.)
■ Directory that contains the current drawing file.
■ Directories listed in the search path specified on the Files tab in OPTIONS.
(See Specify Search Paths and File Locations in the User's Guide.)
■ Directory that contains the AutoCAD program files.
Depending on the current environment, two or more directories may be the
same.
If a file is not in this search path, you must specify both its path name and
file name before AutoCAD can find it. For example, if you want to insert the
part5.dwg drawing into your current drawing and it is not in the library search
path, you must specify its full path name, as shown here:
Command: insert
Enter block name or [?]: /files2/olddwgs/part5
If the drawing exists in that location, AutoCAD prompts you to finish the
INSERT command in the usual manner.
Directory Structure
AutoCAD uses tree-structured directories and subdirectories. It is recommended
that you keep supplemental files (such as AutoLISP applications and
customization files) separate from the AutoCAD program and support files.
This makes it easier to track possible conflicts and to upgrade each application
without affecting the others.
Overview of File Organization | 5
The default location for AutoCAD is in the Program Files folder. You can create
a new directory on the same level (for example, /AcadApps) and store your
custom AutoLISP and VBA macros, customization files, and other third-party
applications in subdirectories on the next level. If you want to maintain
multiple drawing directories (for separate job files), you can create a directory
such as /AcadJobs with subdirectories for each job.
Command Search Procedure
When you enter a command, AutoCAD goes through a series of steps to
evaluate the validity of the command name. A command can be a built-in
command or system variable, an external command or alias defined in the
acad.pgp file, or a user-defined AutoLISP command. Commands can also be
defined by ObjectARX applications or a device driver command. You can enter
a command on the command prompt or choose a command from the
appropriate menu. Commands can also be entered from a script file or by an
AutoLISP or ObjectARX application.
The following list describes the search order AutoCAD uses to validate a
command name.
1 If the input is a null response (Spacebar or Enter), AutoCAD uses the
name of the last command issued.
HELP is the default.
2 AutoCAD checks the command name against the list of built-in
commands. If the command is in the list and is not preceded by a period
(.), AutoCAD then checks the command against a list of undefined
commands. If the command is undefined, the search continues.
Otherwise, the command is run, unless another reason prevents it from
doing so. Running it transparently or in Perspective mode might be
impossible.
3 AutoCAD checks the command name against the names of commands
defined by a device driver, and then by those defined by the display
driver.
4 AutoCAD checks the command name against the external commands
defined in the program parameters file (acad.pgp). If the command name
corresponds to a defined external command, that command runs, and
the search is complete.
5 AutoCAD checks the command name against the list of commands
defined by AutoLISP or ObjectARX applications. At this point, an
autoloaded command is loaded.
6 | Chapter 1 Basic Customization
6 AutoCAD checks the command name against the list of system variables.
If the command name is in the list, AutoCAD executes the SETVAR
command, using the input as the variable name.
7 If the command name corresponds to a command alias defined in the
program parameters file, AutoCAD uses the expanded command name
and continues the search, starting a new search against the list of built-in
commands.
8 If all the preceding steps fail, the search terminates with a warning
message about illegal command names.

Multiple Configurations
See also:
■ “Customize Startup” in the User's Guide
If you use more than one pointing device or use different plotters, you can
set up more than one configuration file to make it easy to switch between
devices.
When you configure AutoCAD for a pointing device and plotter drivers, the
information you supply is recorded in a configuration file.
Multiple Configurations | 7
The default location of the acad2012.cfg configuration file is listed in the
Options dialog box, Files tab, under Help and Miscellaneous File Names, but
you can specify an alternative path or file name.
Typically, only a single configuration is necessary, but you may need multiple
configurations. For example, if you use a mouse for most of your work but
occasionally require a large digitizing tablet, you can set up your system to
handle multiple configurations rather than reconfiguring each time you change
a device.
The configuration file stores the values of many AutoCAD system variables
and the configuration options defined in the Options dialog box. If you want
different settings for these system variables and operating parameters, you
can save those values to different configuration files. For a list of the system
variables and where they are stored, see System Variables in the CommandReference.
To take advantage of multiple configurations, you must set up AutoCAD to
use different configuration files. Use the /c switch to specify alternative
configuration files at startup.

Multiple Drawing Folders
Keeping your drawing and other associated files in separate directories makes
it easier to perform basic file maintenance.
Keeping your drawing files and other associated files in separate directories
makes it easier to perform basic file maintenance. The scenario described in
this topic is based on the sample directory structure described in Overview of
File Organization on page 4, but you can expand or alter it to meet your
needs.
You can set up the /AcadJobs directory to contain your drawing subdirectories.
The drawing subdirectories can contain other subdirectories that hold related
support files for a particular drawing type or job. The /AcadJobs/Job1/Support
directory can contain blocks and AutoLISP files specific to the drawing files
8 | Chapter 1 Basic Customization
in /AcadJobs/Job1. Specifying support (with no path prefix) in the Support path
adds the support directory within the current directory to the Support path.
Notice that if you use the Options dialog box to specify a directory, AutoCAD
creates a hard-coded path to that directory. To use the relative naming
convention previously described, you must specify the Support path with the
/s switch on the command line. See “Customize Startup” in the User's Guide.
To make sure that the required drawing directory is the current directory when
you start AutoCAD, and that all files and subdirectories in that directory are
easily accessible, you can create a program icon or a Start menu item that
specifies the correct working directory for each job. This functionality works
only if you set the AutoCAD system variable REMEMBERFOLDERS to 0.
You can use a batch program to create new job directories automatically. The
following batch program verifies that a specified directory exists, sets that
directory to be current, and then runs AutoCAD.
@echo off
C:
if exist \AcadJobs\Jobs\%1 goto RUNACAD
echo.
echo *** Creating \AcadJobs\Jobs\%1
echo *** Press Ctrl+C to cancel.
echo.
pause
mkdir \AcadJobs\Jobs\%1
:RUNACAD
cd \AcadJobs\Jobs\%1
start “C:\Program Files\Autodesk\AutoCAD 2012\acad.exe”
Using an ASCII text editor (such as Notepad), save the batch program to a file
named acad.bat. Be sure to change the drive and directory names to match
those on your system.
Place this file in a directory that is on your system search path (for example,
C:\winnt). You can run this batch program using the Run command on the
Start menu or by double-clicking the file in Explorer. If you saved the file as
acad.bat, use the following syntax:
acad jobname
where jobname is the name of the job directory to make current.

Locate Customized Files
Beginning with AutoCAD 2004, the location of some of your customized files
has changed. The reasons for the file location changes include the following:
■ Limited user rights on a workstation. You can run AutoCAD as a limited
user. This means that you no longer need power user or Administrator
permissions to run AutoCAD once it is installed.
■ Local profiles. Local profiles are used to log on a computer and they store
settings and files that are not available when roaming. Some files, such as
materials and drawing templates are stored under your local profile because
of their size, they do not follow you from computer to computer.
■ Roaming profiles. Roaming profiles allow you to log on to any computer
within a network and retain your user settings. Some files, such as your
personal settings and documents, follow you from computer to computer.
If roaming profiles are allowed on your network, your “roamable” files are
located in the \Application Data\Autodesk\<Product Version> folder, and
your “nonroamable” files are located in the \Local Settings\ApplicationData\Autodesk\<Product Version> folder.
NOTE In some operating systems, the folders that are located under your profile
are hidden by default. To display these files, you may need to change your display
settings. On the Start menu, click Control Panel ➤ Folder Options. In the Folder
Options dialog box, on the View tab, click Show Hidden Files and Folders.
