When you query objects from attached drawings into the current drawing, AutoCAD Map 3D toolset creates an association between the original object in the attached drawing and the copy of the object in the current drawing.
To save objects to the current drawing
- Click
Save.
- If prompted to save objects to attached source drawings, do not do so at this time, since this removes them from the current drawing.
To save the objects to both the current drawing and attached drawings, first clear Erase Saved Back Objects on the Save Back tab of the AutoCAD Map Options dialog box.
