About

  • Enhance Your User's Experience with the our DWG Infotip Shell Extension.
  • Show the DWG properties as an Infotip (tooltip) in Explorer or even from file dialog boxes within AutoCAD.

  • Use DWGPROPS in AutoCAD and add information in the Summary or Custom tabs and it will show up just hovering above a DWG file.
  • The Infotip will show the version of the DWG file, file size, date modified and most property information.
  • PROPULATE allows quick, automated population of the Drawing Properties dialog data fields.
  • No need to have AutoCAD installed. That means that everyone at your company can see this information.
  • No need to open the drawing to know information like revision and other valuable information in the drawing.
