Командная строка

/b
Script name
Designates a script to run after you start the program (b stands for batch process). Scripts can be used to set up drawing parameters in a new drawing file. An SCR file type is assumed.

/t
Template file name
Creates a new drawing based on a template or prototype drawing. A DWT file type is assumed.

/c
Configuration folder
Specifies the path for the hardware configuration file that you want to use. You can specify a directory or a particular file. A CFG file type is assumed.

If you don't set the /c switch, the executable directory is searched and the ACADCFGW or ACADCFG environment variable is used as a way to define the configuration file and directory location.

/v
View name
Designates a particular view of the drawing for display at startup.

/ld
ARX or DBX application
Loads a specified ARX or DBX application. Use the following format:

<path>\<filename>.ARX

If the path or file name contains spaces, then the path or file name should be wrapped in double quotes. If no path information is included, the program search path is used.

/s
Support folders
Designates support folders other than the current folder. Drawing support files include text fonts, menus, AutoLISP files, linetypes, and hatch patterns. The maximum number of folders you can specify in the path is 15. Each folder name is delimited by semicolons.

/r
Default system pointing

device
Restores the default system pointing device. It creates a new configuration file (acad2008.cfg) and renames the previous acad2008.cfg file to acad.bak.

/nologo
No AutoCAD logo screen
Starts the program without first displaying the logo screen.

/p
User-defined registry

profile for starting the

program
Specifies a user-defined registry profile for starting the program. The selected profile is in effect only for the current session of the program, unless you make another profile current in the Options dialog box during that session.

You create or import profiles on the Profiles tab in the Options dialog box. With the /p switch, you can specify only those profiles that are listed in the Options dialog box. If the profile does not exist, the current profile is used.

/nohardware
Disables hardware

acceleration Disables hardware acceleration on startup.

/nossm
No Sheet Set Manager

window
Suppresses the display of the Sheet Set Manager window on startup.

/set
Sheet set
Loads the named sheet set on startup. Use the following format:

<path>\<sheet set data file>.DST

/w
Default workspace
Designates which workspace in the loaded CUI files should be restored on startup.

/pl
Background plotting/publishing
Publishes a drawing set descriptions (DSD) file in the background. Use the following format:

<path>\<drawing set descriptions file>.DSD

The syntax for using command line switches is

"drive:pathname\acad.exe" ["drawingname"] [/switch "name"]

When using a switch option, you must follow the switch with a space and then the name of a file, path, or view within quotation marks. For example, the following entry starts the program from a folder named AutoCAD 2008 with the drawing template arch1.dwt, restores a named view PLAN1, and executes a script file startup.scr.

"d:\AutoCAD 200X\acad.exe”/t "d:\AutoCAD 2008\template\arch1" /v "plan1" /b "startup"

The environment settings are resolved in the following way:

If you use a command line switch to specify an environment setting, the command line switch overrides the settings specified in either the Options dialog box or the environment variable.
If a command line switch is not set, the corresponding value set in the Options dialog box is used.
If neither a command line switch nor an Options value is set, the environment variable value is used.
NoteCommand line switches and environment variables override values set in the Options dialog box for the current session only. They do not alter the system registry.
