The observant among you may have noticed that for many years, Autodesk’s free patches, service packs and updates haven’t added any new functionality. Bugs may get fixed, severe performance issues may be addressed, but design errors generally have to wait for the next release (at the earliest), and new features definitely don’t get added. The [...]  12 September 2011, 1:06 pm |  5 comments | Tags: Accounting, Autodesk, FASB, SEC, Service Pack, SOP 97-2, Update, VSOE | Category: AutoCAD, AutoCAD 2012, Autodesk, Autodesk University, ClassicArray, Customer Service, Navel Gazing, Nostalgia, Other Products, Thoughts The first update for AutoCAD 2012 is now available on the Autodesk site. As usual, read the readme first and exercise the usual paranoia. Make sure you install the right version (32 or 64 bit). The update is also available for AutoCAD LT 2012.

This will be welcome news to those of you who have discovered that AutoCAD crashes when using Copy/Paste after installing the 10.6.7 OS X update.

Now there’s a fixed version available for AutoCAD and LT. There is no news yet about Updates for vertical AutoCAD variants. If you have installed Update 1 and the hotfix, you [...] 8 September 2010, 12:49 pm | Leave a comment | Tags: Update | Category: Announcement, AutoCAD 2011, Bug, Other Blogs, Tip If you click on the link I posted about earlier, you will get this: On August 23, 2010, Autodesk released Update 1 for AutoCAD 2011. Unfortunately, Update 1 introduced an issue when conducting certain operations that may cause AutoCAD to shut down. This issue affects a small number of users. We have removed Update [...] 28 August 2010, 9:17 pm | One comment | Tags: Update | Category: Announcement, AutoCAD 2011, Autodesk The first update for AutoCAD 2011 is now available on the Autodesk site.

One thing for which Autodesk deserves praise is the distribution of bug fixes to its [...] 30 April 2010, 2:03 pm | 6 comments | Tags: AutoCAD, AutoCAD 2010, Customer Service, Service Pack, Update | Category: AutoCAD, AutoCAD 2010, Autodesk, Bug, Customer Service, Win Update 1, the first of Autodesk’s Updates (formerly Service Packs) for AutoCAD 2010 is now out for AutoCAD and AutoCAD LT. Equivalent updates for various verticals will follow soon. The Readme contains information about what was fixed, so I won’t reproduce that here.

This pack improves PDF output (long overdue and very welcome) and adds the ability to attach PDF files. That’s welcome too, but is of largely academic interest right now because of a total lack of interoperability.
