Hi ammer

Simply, do all your settings in any empty project and save it with any name. Put the file you saved into folder named "C:\Program Files\ideCAD\ideCAD Structural 8\Templates\structural". You may create a folder in there as well.

For example, on this picture I created a folder named "my template" under the "C:\Program Files\ideCAD\ideCAD Structural 8\Templates\structural". And I put sample "my template.ide85" into it.





and now, run the program, select the file on new project screen

No, you have to make all settings in an idecad file for beams, column and other objects, You can also set analysis options.

Hi ammer,

I see your question now.

Import autocad drawing into idecad you want to use. (use "Dwg-dxf-2d" command under "file" menu ). Scale it if its necessary.

Make block it to file as .blk object in idecad. (use "Copy to file" command under "file" menu )

Now you may paste .blk object from file into any your plans, detail etc you will create in idecad. (use "Paste from file" command under "file" menu )

Hi ammer,

You should add your template into your drawing manually

It cant be done automatically, you should put it manually on each layouts, delete other lines created by program that you dont want and put your block. Move it to its location.
