Use InfoCenter

InfoCenter is a feature used in several Autodesk products. It consists of a set of tools on the right side of the title bar that enable you to access many product-related information sources. Depending on the Autodesk product and the configuration, these tools might differ. For example, in some products, the InfoCenter toolbar may also include a Sign In button for Autodesk Cloud services.

You can use InfoCenter to search for product-related help, display the Subscription Center panel for subscription services, display the Communication Center panel for product updates and announcements, and display the Favorites panel to access saved topics.

Search

Use the Search box and button to quickly look up information in the main product Help through keywords (or by entering a phrase).

Click the Expand/Collapse arrow to toggle the Search box to a collapsed state.

Subscription Center

Subscription services are available to Autodesk subscription members. Services include access to:
  • Latest releases of Autodesk software
  • Incremental product enhancements
  • Personalized web support from Autodesk technical experts
  • Self-paced e-Learning

Click the Subscription Center button to see a drop-down menu of available options.

Note: Subscription Center is not available in all products or locations.

Communication Center

Communication Center provides the following types of announcements:
  • Autodesk Channels: Receive support information, product updates, and other announcements (including articles and tips).
  • RSS Feeds: Receive information from RSS feeds to which you subscribe. RSS feeds generally notify you when new content is posted. You might automatically be subscribed to several default RSS feeds when you install your software.

Favorites

Use the Favorites tool to quickly access important links that you save from the Subscription Center and Communication Center.

To add a favorite, open the Subscription Center or Communication Center, and click the Favorites icon beside the link you want to add.

InfoCenter Settings

If you have Subscription Center and Communication Center, you can customize settings such as notification behavior, RSS feeds, and Autodesk Channels in the InfoCenter Settings dialog box. To open this dialog box, click the InfoCenter Settings button at the top of the Subscription Center, Communication Center, or Favorites panels.
