Cloud Sync for AutoCAD Architecture/MEP plug-in preview

The Cloud Sync for AutoCAD Architecture/MEP plug-in is a free technology preview from Autodesk that allows users to manage drawing access on local computer networks and also across cloud storage services (e.g., Autodesk 360, Dropbox, Google Drive, SkyDrive). With this functionality and depending on how a user has elected to set up a given cloud storage service, automatic access to the Internet and automatic sync of a file between a local machine (or network) and the cloud storage service is possible.

The technology preview is available for Autodesk AutoCAD Architecture 2014/2013 or Autodesk AutoCAD MEP 2014/2013 software (English versions only). The technology preview will operate until April 1, 2014.

Right click on a construct, view or sheet and Check Out or Check In.

In the Project Navigator you can see what files are checked out by the current user or by other users.

It’s possible to  revert to previous versions using Rollback to this version in the Check-In History.

If this sounds interesting download it from Autodesk Labs site.

If you handle many sheets our SSMPropEditor can help to update sheet properties on multiple sheets at the same time.
