About Object Enablers

Enablers are collaboration utilities that allow users of other Autodesk products to view and manipulate objects created in AutoCAD MEP 2022 toolset. Enablers use ObjectDBX technology to allow object data created in AutoCAD MEP 2022 toolset to be accessed outside its native environment. This provides data accessibility for design teams that create and receive AutoCAD MEP 2022 toolset files.

If you open an AutoCAD MEP 2022 toolset drawing that contains an object created in a different Autodesk product, AutoCAD MEP 2022 toolset can automatically check http://www.autodesk.com for an object enabler to use to display the object. If it fails to find one, the object is displayed using proxy graphics instead.

To control whether AutoCAD MEP 2022 toolset checks for object enablers, use the Live Enabler options on the System tab of the Options dialog box. You can also manually check for object enablers at http://www.autodesk.com/enablers.
