Steal from Drawing

Description

The program allows the user to import (humourously: 'steal') items from another drawing into the current drawing.

 

Upon running the program with the command syntax 'Steal' at the Autodesk® AutoCAD® command-line, the user is prompted to select a drawing file (dwg/dwt/dws) from which to steal items. Following a valid selection, if the selected drawing contains items not already present in the current drawing, a dialog will appear displaying items available for import.

 

The user may choose to import multiple items from a list of:

 

• Blocks

• Layers

• Linetypes

• Dimension Styles

• Text Styles

• Table Styles

• Multileader Styles

• Multiline Styles

• Layouts

• Page Setups

• User Coordinate Systems

• Named Groups

• Views

• Layer States

• Scales

• Materials

• Named Viewports

• Drawing Properties

• Custom Properties

  • Same as Design Center
    Mathrew Marrero | January 08, 2023

    Acts the same as the design center. This would be good for mac users since their mac prevents them from using design center.

  • Awesome
    Jason A Curebanas | August 22, 2018

    First of all Lee Mac is the man. The CAD community is lucky to have him and his gracious behavior in delivering us FREE tools to use. Ive been using this for awhile now and it is soooooo much better then trying to insert a dwg into another dwg to try and get objects in. plus it does way more settings than that. I even use this as functions to make tool palette buttons to "import" almost complete templates in teh click of a button. cant say enough good things about this one!


  • Any chance we could have this tool for AutoCAD 2018?

    Thanks for this fantastic tool Lee. Can we have the 2018 compatible version?


  • Unable to interface
    Hector Canas | March 22, 2017

    Thank you for this excellent tool... I'm getting error "Unable to interface with drawing". If I use a Template o a Dwg, I getting the same error. After I loaded the "Steal. l s p", I have the following (steal "" '( ("Layers" ("*")) ("Linetypes" ("*")) ("Text Styles" ("*")) ("Dimension Styles" ("*")) ("Page Setups" ("*")) ("Groups" ("*")) ("Multileader Styles" ("*")) ("Multiline Styles" ("*")) ("Table Styles" ("*")) ("Layer States" ("*")) ) ) Please help, Thank you.

    This fixed it for me..... the source file needs \\ between each file reference not just \ ....... ex. (Steal "C:\\My Folder\\MyDrawing.dwg"
