Slides and Command
Scripts
Slides are snapshots of drawing files that can be used for giving presentations, for creating
image tile menus, and for viewing another drawing while you work.
A script reads and executes commands from a text file. You can run a script when you start
AutoCAD LT ® , or you can run a script from within AutoCAD LT using the SCRIPT command.
A script provides an easy way to create continuously running displays for product
demonstrations and trade shows.
Create Slides
Slides are snapshots of drawing files. You can use slides for giving presentations,
creating custom image tile menus, and viewing an image of another drawing
while you work.
Overview of Slides
A slide is a snapshot of a drawing. Although it contains a picture of the drawing
at a given instant, it is not a drawing file.
You cannot import a slide file into the current drawing, nor can you edit or
print a slide. You can only view it.
You can use slide files in the following ways:
■ For making presentations within AutoCAD LT ®
■ For viewing a snapshot of a drawing while working on a different drawing
■ For creating menus of image tiles within a dialog box
