Drawing Tabs / Manager for ACAD 2006-2009
FREE Utility
Drawing Tabs/Manager place navigation tabs
and the Drawing Manager at the bottom of the ACAD edit window
as displayed below for the Drawing Tabs.

The tabs are present whenever you have a drawing open
in ACAD. To navigate from one drawing to
another when multiple drawings are open, all you have to do is select the appropriate tab.
This is a free utility. Drawing Tabs were
originally developed for incorporation into
the Dwg Manager. This has been accomplished with the latest version. The two
are now integrated with the drawing manager placed on the same line as the
drawing tabs. To activate the options available for the drawing manager and
the drawing tabs, place the cursor over the drawing tabs and press the
secondary mouse button. The options will be displayed in a pop-up menu.
CAE-Link Corporation has decided to provide this utility without license as
completely free utility for the ACAD community. This is a utility that
should have been a part of ACAD years ago.
Version 2009 is compatible with ACAD 2006-2009 with a single installation.
Download - Version 2009 (x86 systems only)
DwgMan_09_x86.exe (updated 06-23-09)
DwgMan_09_x86 is compatible with
XP and Vista for 32 bit operating systems only.
Download - Version 2009 (x86 and x64 beta)
DwgMan_09.exe (updated 04-15-09)
DwgMan_09 for x86 and x64 systems is
currently under beta testing and final development. It appears to work
properly with ACAD, but problems have been reported in ADT, MEP, Civil, etc.
We are attempting to duplicate and correct these problems at this time. If
you are using a 64 bit system, use the program with full knowledge of the
possible problems.
Installation Instructions
- If ACAD is running, close it.
- Install DwgMan 2009 directly from the web by selecting Open when
prompted. If you prefer, select
Save and place the file in a temporary directory.
- If you saved the file, go the the file location and double click on
the file. The EXE is a standard installation program which is very quick
and compact.
- Respond to the installation wizard questions. Once installed, start
ACAD and the system will be loaded and the Layer toolbar will be
displayed.
- DwgMan will install the
system into the user's application directory. The installation will create several files named "cl-DwgMan_xx.arx"
where "xx" is the version of ACAD you are using such as ACAD 09
will use DwgMan_07-09.arx. When installed, DwgMan will be activated in
ACAD and no further installation is required..
If you encounter problems with the installation or using the system please email
your problem or concerns to
