Features
One of the standout features of JTB DwgInfoTip Freeware is its ability to display DWG properties without the need to open AutoCAD. By simply hovering over a DWG file in Windows Explorer, you can quickly access information such as revision history and other valuable details about the drawing. This feature is especially useful for streamlining workflows and ensuring that everyone in your company has access to essential drawing information.
For those looking to add more detailed information to their DWG files, the full version of DwgInfoTip allows you to use DWGPROPS in AutoCAD to populate the Summary or Custom tabs with additional data. This information can then be displayed in the Infotip in Windows Explorer, giving you a comprehensive overview of your drawing files at a glance.
Another useful tool included with DwgInfoTip is PROPULATE, which automates the population of data fields in the Drawing Properties dialog. This can save you time and effort when inputting information about your drawings, ensuring that all necessary details are easily accessible.
