Layout Tracking & DXE Support
Automate layout tracking and keep your CAD data connected — less manual upkeep, fewer duplicate errors.
Beyond publishing, 12d Synergy also helps you manage the moving parts of your CAD data — layouts, references and cross-file dependencies — with less manual upkeep.
Managing CAD’s data can quickly become a task bigger than Ben Hur. Hundreds of drawings mean time-consuming, repetitive work — title block data entry, tracking changes, and more.
12d Synergy simplifies and automates how you manage your drawings, references and attributes with dedicated CAD management tools, including Layout Tracking and DXE Support.
Make project information easier to manage with 12d Synergy.
From documents and drawings to emails, models and workflows, 12d Synergy brings everything together in one secure system so your team can work more efficiently from day one.

12d Synergy’s Title Block Manager lets you import layers from a DWG — including title block attributes — and manage them in a spreadsheet-style editor.
Layout Tracking builds on this: 12d Synergy automatically detects layout changes (new, removed or updated layouts) at check-in, and prompts you to push those changes into the Layout Editor.
Layout Tracking also safeguards against duplicate layout names when adding a new layout or renaming sheets — giving you better control over your attributes, and more flexibility in how you manage your title blocks.

DXE Support
12d Synergy supports tracking between DWGs and Data Extraction Files (DXE) — a consolidation of data links, such as Excel CSV files, that can be referenced in AutoCAD, similar to Xrefs.
DXE relationships to individual files are tracked and supported in 12d Synergy. Note: DXE files can be managed and tracked in 12d Synergy, but not created there.
