zowie123 Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 Hi All, After shopping around, I think this repository of cad details is pretty comprehensive and clean: autocaddetails.net (I'm not afiliated with them and if anyone knows of a better CAD detail library, please share with me). They offer pdf and dwg. It would be faster for me to use the dwg. However I need a way to preview these dwgs as high res thumbnails. Windows explorer will only show them as low res thumbs. Does anyone know a better way to preview dwgs as high res thumbnails? Or is there a windows tweak to get a higher res dwg thumbnail in windows explorer? Thank you, Barry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rlackore Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 DWG TrueView from Autodesk is free and you can view and convert dwg/dxf. This isn't an integrated Windows Explorer solution, but it's very useful. I don't know for certain, but there's a chance that installing TrueView will also install whatever's needed to preview in Explorer (I can't test this because I have a bunch of AutoDesk products installed besides TrueView, but I've read elsewhere on the net that this is true).
