Sometimes we don't have much choice over how deep the
directory tree gets to save our files. I call it fighting the tree because
there are a few directories of mine that are just buried and need ten clicks
to find just the directory let alone the file itself. The AutoCAD 2002
and higher offers another solution for this
scenario that is very convenient.
The answer lies in the Places area of the Select File dialogue box. This
area contains several icons by default, History, My Documents, Favorites,
Desktop, Buzzsaw, Point A, and FTP. All of these shortcuts, except the
Buzzsaw and Point A icons in AutoCAD 2002 products,
can be deleted by right-clicking on them and picking Remove from the
options. in AutoCAD 2004 based products, you can delete
them all! An additional option on the right click menu allows the user
to restore the original set of icons if need be. You can also
add your own shortcut to this area of any folder
highlighted in the dialogue box! That's right ladies and gentleman you can
now customize the Select file dialogue box to have it your way when it comes
to shortcuts for YOUR folders!
