Editing an embedded IntelliCAD object in place

In many ActiveX-compatible programs you can edit an embedded IntelliCAD object without leaving the program (or container application). This is called in-place editing. A different set of IntelliCAD menus and toolbars temporarily replaces most of the menus and controls in the active window while you edit the IntelliCAD object.

To edit an embedded IntelliCAD object in place

  1. In the container application, double-click the embedded IntelliCAD object.
  2. A different set of IntelliCAD menus and controls appears.
  3. Edit the IntelliCAD drawing.
  4. Click anywhere outside the drawing window to exit the in-place editing controls.
