We're now in Exercise 9 where we're going to import our Project palette for other members of our CAD Team to use. Now as before though get into that habit of saving, remember? So it's Application Menu, click on the fly-out and Save As. In older versions of AutoCAD click on your file pull-down and Save As and we're going to save it as Exercise 9, Import Palette, not Export, don't get it confused with your Export Palette File. So it's Exercise 9, Import Palette. I've already done that, you can see by the Title Bar at the top of there. So I'm going to click on Cancel, however make sure that you save your Exercise 9. Now the second thing that we must do, down on our Tool Palettes here is right-click and we want all Palettes. So we want all our Palettes listed now on the left-hand side, all of our Tabs of our Tool Palettes. Project is still at the top because we moved it up to the top previously. Now, we need to import our Project Palette, so it's a right-click now. And we got o Customize Palettes like before and we've got our Project Palette there. Now what I'm going to do is I'm actually going to right-click over Project here and rename it and I'm going to rename it Project 2 and press Enter. So that will rename my Project Tab here. So if I close that now, you'll see that when I hover over this one its Project 2. Let's right-click on the Title Bar again now and Customize Palettes again and what I'm going to do now is I'm going to right-click over Project 2 and Import. That will go to my A Tool Palette Folder and there's my Project XTP File. So if I select that File and then click on Open you'll see now that I have a second Project Palette there. Now the trick here is I now know which one is which. So if ever you Export a palette give it a different name and then when you import it again you'll see that we have a new Project Palette. Now I'm going to left-click and drag and drop that into my group there so I've now got Project, Project 2, Blocks and Commands. If I close that now and then right-click here to look at my groups and I go to my Project Group you'll see that we have an extra Tab which will be the Project Tab because we renamed our existing Project Tab as Project 2. So I've got Project there, same as Project 2 where it was imported. I've also got my Blocks Tab and my Commands Tab. So you can see there that when you import you can still rename Palettes that have the same names. So what we've done there now is we've created from scratch a Dynamic Block. We've then taken that Dynamic Block onto a Tool palette, we've organized the Tool Palette, we've set up the View Options on the Tool Palette, we've then exported the Tool Palette and also imported again with our Dynamic Blocks on the Palette. So by now you should be familiar with how to utilize Dynamic Blocks. You should be familiar with how to utilize Tool Palettes, therefore you should be able to combine the best qualities of both worlds now, Dynamic Blocks and Tool Palettes to make yourself more productive, to make yourself more efficient, to make yourself a much better AutoCAD User.
