Keyboard: IMPORT

Alias: IMP

Displays the Open Drawing dialog box so you can open another drawing file (.dwg) in its own window in the current drawing session. You can also open Drawing Interchange Format (.dxf) files.


NOTE The Import command is different from both the External Reference command, in which you can view another drawing at the same time as the current drawing, and the Insert command, which inserts the imported drawing as a block.
