AutoCAD 2010… a closer look at Initial Setup

The first time you launch AutoCAD 2010, you’re presented with the Initial Setup window. The Initial Setup enables you to tailor the AutoCAD environment to meet your needs. You can specify an industry as well as workspace and drawing template preferences.

If you’re not ready to specify the setup options or if you just can’t wait to see the new AutoCAD, you can skip the initial setup and then access it later from the User Preferences tab of the Options dialog box.

When you specify Initial Setup options, AutoCAD automatically creates a new workspace based on your choices and sets it active.
