It gives the user drawing by drawing control over what is saved to Autodesk’s servers.įind more official info on the change here. A360 - View CAD files - Autodesk A360 was designed specifically for architects, engineers and designers to view and collaborate 2D & 3D CAD models. If you want files to be saved to your A360 drive, you have to save them to it. So now you cannot auto sync your design files to the cloud. As a side note – that behavior was/is on by default, and while the drive is encrypted, many (read most) users like to turn that default behavior off.Īutodesk, however, got the memo and starting with the 2016 release of AutoCAD and its verticals removed that little check box in options. In options, if “Enable automatic sync” was check on the online tab every drawing you saved was also saved to your 360 drive. With over 100 CAD file and additional file formats supported. In version before 2016 AutoCAD could, and by default did, automatically save design files to the cloud. Autodesk A360 was designed specifically for architects, engineers and designers to view and collaborate 2D & 3D CAD models.
