In newer versions of eQUEST, these INI file switches need to be added
to the eQUEST.ini file located in the eQ DATA directory, not the one
under ...\Program Files\...<br>
If you are not sure where the eQ DATA directory is, then open
eQUEST and select (from the menu): Tools - View File Locations - View
eQUEST Data
Directory...<br>

  <div>In your eQuest installation folder, find the eQuest.ini file.
Then copy+paste the following 2 lines just after the 'preferences'
section. </div>
  <div> </div>
  <div><strong>EnableFootprintAutoPlot=1<br>
EnableZoningAutoPlot=1</strong></div>
  <div> </div>
  <div>Save this file and restart eQuest. I have had best use of this
when using AutoCAD 2004 drawings having polygons (actually,
polylines) with fewer vertices. eQuest allows polygons with 120
vertices I believe. So while using the autoplot feature, if a polygon
is not being traced well, just trace it manually rather than going back
to AutoCAD to fix it.</div>
