README.TXT for Integrated Blocks and Layers (IBL) version 1.0 Overview: Integrated Blocks and Layers (IBL) is an AutoCAD R14 Extension that is designed to assist in managing blocks and layers. IBL provides layer managing utilities that facilitate the grouping of large amounts of layers. This allows you to quickly freeze and thaw layers, both globally and in viewports. The block utility is designed to allow the user to quickly select blocks from a well designed graphical interface and insert them in an efficient manner. The real strength of IBL is its ability to combine the layering utilities with the block routines. This combination and integration of tools allows for blocks to automatically be inserted on the correct layer with almost any layering configuration. Installation: IBL can be installed by double-clicking on the SETUP.EXE program. An installation program will guide you through the installation of the IBL.ARX application, and install sample block and layer toolbars for use with AutoCAD. Installation requires Windows 95, 98, or NT 4.0 IBL is a shareware application. This archive is a fully functional application, which will operate for 30 days from the time of installation. After this time, a valid serial number must be obtained from Integrated Design Solutions, or IBL will fail to load into AutoCAD. Serial numbers can be obtained via email, dsgnsolution@earthlink.net, or from the IDS home page, http://home.earthlink.net/~dsgnsolution. Distribution: IBL may be freely distributed in its archived (.zip) form. Once a valid serial number is obtained from Integrated Design Solutions (IDS), the license may not be copied or transfered without permission from IDS. Question, comments and support should be directed to the authors at: dsgnsolution@earthlink.net Further information can also be obtained from the IDS home page at: http://home.earthlink.net/~dsgnsolution/
