 Menu: File Add Drawings

Adds drawings and folders of drawings to the tree view. You can edit the paths of files referenced by the drawings on this list.

Places List

Provides quick access to predefined file locations. Click the Look In arrow to view the path for each icon. You can reorder the icons in the Places list by dragging them to a new location. To add a new icon to the Places list, drag a folder from the Files list to the Places list, or right-click an existing icon and click Add or Add Current Folder on the shortcut menu. This shortcut menu also provides options for removing and modifying icons, or restoring default icons that have been removed. Changes to the Places list affect all standard file selection dialog boxes.

• History. Displays shortcuts to the files most recently accessed from the dialog box. It is recommended that you periodically remove unwanted shortcuts from the History list. Select History, then select the unwanted shortcuts from the Files list and click Delete. To sort the shortcuts by date, click Views Details, and then click the Modified column in the Files list.
• Personal/My Documents. Displays the contents of the Personal or My Documents folder for the current user profile. The name of this location ("Personal" or "My Documents") depends on your operating system version.
• Favorites. Displays the contents of the Favorites folder for the current user profile. This folder consists of shortcuts to files or folders that you added to Favorites using the Tools Add to Favorites option in the dialog box.
• Desktop. Displays the contents of your desktop.
