About this app
If you're an AutoCAD user looking to streamline your workflow and access vital information about your DWG files more efficiently, then JTB DwgInfoTip is the plugin for you. This powerful tool allows you to view the DWG version and properties directly in Explorer or file dialog boxes within AutoCAD, saving you time and effort.
Features of JTB DwgInfoTip
One of the standout features of JTB DwgInfoTip is its ability to display DWG version and properties as an Infotip (tooltip) in Explorer or file dialog boxes within AutoCAD. By utilizing the DWGPROPS function in AutoCAD to add information in the Summary or Custom tabs, you can easily view important details such as revision information without having to open the drawing itself.
In addition, the PROPULATE feature in JTB DwgInfoTip allows for quick and automated population of the Drawing Properties dialog data fields, further enhancing the plugin's functionality. This means that everyone in your company can access this valuable information, even if they do not have AutoCAD installed on their system.
For those looking for more advanced features, JTB DwgInfoTip also offers a freeware version with limited functionality, as well as the option to view DWG properties in Explorer columns with JTB World's DWG Columns for Explorer plugin.

Installation and Requirements
It's important to note that JTB DwgInfoTip requires elevated user privileges to install, and a restart of Windows is needed after both installation and uninstallation. The plugin uses a custom installer, as opposed to the standard App Store installer, so be sure to follow the installation instructions carefully.
Additionally, it's worth mentioning that JTB DwgInfoTip does not run as an add-on within AutoCAD and does not include a Ribbon panel. However, this does not detract from the plugin's functionality or ease of use, as the Infotip feature seamlessly integrates with your existing workflow.
