I am unsure as to whether the image of the .DWG file follows the eQuest model around, or whether the program has to find it each time. Once you trace the building, you will actually not need the .DWG file again.</span></div><div><span></span> </div><div><span>

I am studying Equest in school, we are working on a group project. Is there a way to "bind" an Autocad drawing to an Equest file? Or does the .dwg file need to be loaded on whatever computer we are working on?<br>Thank you<br>Laura Falk-Helgemoe<br> </div></div>
