Installing the Autodesk Civil 3D Object Enabler enables:
- Support of basic AutoCAD commands on AutoCAD Land Desktop objects, such as List, Explode, Block, WBlock, and Copy
- Snap points on the objects (so you can use Object Snaps)
- Grip editing of AutoCAD Land Desktop objects (except for grading)
Without this enabler installed, you can share drawings using proxy graphics. Proxy graphics provide an alternative means to display objects using simple graphical representations. Objects represented as proxy graphics lack the full “intelligence” of true objects. AutoCAD uses this mechanism for DWG file compatibility if the custom application is not loaded.
