I am certainly going to be sad about the ending of the Education Tour. What a great opportunity to spend so much time with all the teachers! I truly enjoyed myself and look forward to doing another tour in the future. And as always...they didn't just learn from me - I definitely did my fair share of learning from them as well.
I had to take a picture of the crew from the very last event...it was held at the extremely nice Anthem College in Phoenix, Arizona. Below you'll find our host, Floyd McWilliams of Anthem College (in the suit jacket), Maureen Higgins, the local Autodesk Education Rep, and a very nice man from CADsoft Consulting whose name I forgot (Bad Lynn). I am really bad with names (so embarassing). Floyd is a member of the ADDA Board and invited me to speak at their annual meeting in Nashville next year - I am looking forward to it!
They took me on a tour of their Veterinary school at Anthem and I couldn't help but let one of the dogs out of their pen so I could pet him (also Bad Lynn). He was so adorable and in desperate need of a little petting (please don't tell on me). I just couldn't resist.
An AutoCAD Hip Tip on Controlling Object Frames:
Various imported objects have frames: Images, DWFs, DGN and OLE. In order to edit these objects we need to have their frames turned ON but we often want those frames turned off for printing. We use the IMAGEFRAME, DWFFRAME, DGNFRAME, and OLEFRAME system variables to control the visibility of frames. If you are tired of flipping these frames on and off you'll appreciate that the setting of "2" (added recently to AutoCAD) turns the frames on for editing but doesn't display them during printing. Hoorah!
