So far I\u2019ve been pretty focused on all of the benefits you\u2019ll see once you\u2019re in AutoCAD 2017, but what if you\u2019re not there yet? This week, I want to take a look at how easy upgrading and managing your subscription can be with our License Manager.<\/p>\n

License Manager<\/h2>\n

Moving from one license to another has never been simpler! We\u2019ve made it easier this time around to change between license types and<\/em> to save your work should your network license lose connection with the License Manager. No more lost work time!<\/p>\n

\"Installing<\/p>\n

We know you might be doing other things while you\u2019re installing, so there\u2019s no need to input license type and serial number during the installation process. Instead, now you can wait to provide this information until you first launch AutoCAD! Once you\u2019re there, just choose between a Serial Number (stand-alone) and a Network License.<\/p>\n

By the way, InfoCenter has a new License Manager option so you can view your software license info and installed plug-ins, add-ons, and extensions. It makes keeping track of everything so much more intuitive \u2013 I can\u2019t live without it!<\/p>\n

Bonus Tip: <\/strong>You can also change the type of license (stand-alone or network), or input a new serial number from the Manage License option in the dropdown menu.<\/p>\n

\"License<\/p>\n

If you select network license, AutoCAD will allow you to check out a license for up to 6 months so you can use it offline. Now you can keep working whether you\u2019re in Antarctica or in the middle of the Pacific Ocean \u2013 you know, in case you need to design your dream home on a deserted island.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re online using the license server and you lose your connection to the network at any time, AutoCAD will give you an error message and a timer that doesn\u2019t begin until you dismiss the message. This should give you plenty of time to save your work! <\/strong><\/p>\n

Smooth Migration<\/h2>\n

Ready to make the jump to AutoCAD 2017? I know how daunting the prospect of losing your custom settings can be. That\u2019s why I\u2019m so excited to tell you about the updated Migrate Custom Settings tool that, well, migrates your custom settings and files from a previous release to this one. It is much friendlier and easier to use than previous versions.<\/p>\n

We didn\u2019t want it to be overly designed, so the modern and informative interface makes it easier to detect and clearly identify customized settings for migrating.<\/p>\n

\"Migrate<\/p>\n

Bonus Tip:<\/strong> You can also get to the Migrate Custom Settings tool from the Windows Start menu (note: AutoCAD cannot be running). But don\u2019t worry! If you change your mind, you\u2019ll find a \u201cReset Setting to Default\u201d option there as well. The updated summary report also offers more information in an easier-to-read format.<\/p>\n
