AutoCAD See the Difference

On the AutoCAD Resource Center there is now a new section titled "See the Difference". This section contains ten videos that demonstrate different abilities of AutoCAD in the past compared to how we do those actions now.

I know that this would be helpful for potential new users to evaluate what they may be able to do with AutoCAD 2009 and AutoCAD 2009 based products like AutoCAD Civil 3D 2009.

Additionally, some may look at these short videos (approximately 3 minutes) as learning opportunities.

I found them helpful to remind me of some of the improvements that I have overlooked, ignored, or forgotten. It made me a little bit more appreciative of the new stuff.

The ten videos are titled:

Working with Layers
Customizing AutoCAD
Updating Xrefs
Working with Blocks
Drafting Settings
Hatching
Text
Displaying Dimensions
Working with Tables
3D Design & Navigation
