The following drag-and-drop operations are supported:
■
Dragging elements, constructs, views, and sheets from one category in the Drawing Explorer to another.
■
Dragging elements, constructs, views, and sheets from the Drawing Explorer into the AutoCAD Architecture drawing
area.
■
Dragging and dropping objects from an open drawing in the drawing area onto an element or construct in the
Project Navigator.
■
Dragging drawing files from Windows Explorer to the Project Navigator; depending on where you drag them,
drawing files are converted to elements, constructs, views, or plotting sheets.
For detailed information on dragging and dropping files, see the appropriate sections for the project files.
The Project Status Bar
When you are working with a drawing in a project, the project status bar of the AutoCAD Architecture drawing area
displays the name of the current project, the name of the project file, and the project file type. When you open a
drawing that does not belong to a project, no project information is displayed.

Displaying the Project Tool Palette Group
Use this procedure to display the project tool palette group in the tool palettes set.
Depending on the setting of the tool palette file location (as described in “
Adding a Project Library and Tool Palette
Group
” on page 180), the project tool palette group can be displayed automatically after you set a project current and
close Project Browser, or it can be empty and not be displayed on the tool palettes set. The project tool palette group
is displayed automatically when it contains at least one palette.
Project tool palette groups that are not automatically displayed can appear in the following cases:
■
A new project that is not based on a template, and does not point to an existing tool palette group
■
A legacy project that is not manually redirected to an existing tool palette group
■
A project that is based on a template project without project tool palettes
If an empty tool palette group is created for a project, it is not displayed in the tool palettes set after the project is set
current. To display it, you need to add at least one tool palette to it.
