View Data Shortcut Project Folder Name And Path Autodesk Community Create a new shortcuts folder: manage tab > data shortcuts panel > new project data shortcuts folder. name the project data shortcuts folder; note, that the project name is displayed next to the drawing name on the civil 3d program title bar to indicate that the dwg is associated with the project. What our overall goal with data shortcuts is, is to keep the source drawings of surface models separate from the drawing files, so in the end we end up with a multi sheet “drawing” file, something like: 100 101 102 110.dwg , and that file will pull drefs surfaces from source drawings in a project model folder. Currently, to ensure that the drawing is looking to the right folder for data shortcuts, we must click a button and browse to the working folder (one folder below where we want the shortcuts to reside) and click another button and designate the folder where the data shortcuts do or will reside. To set a new working folder set a new working folder as the location to store data shortcut projects. the default working folder for data shortcut projects is c:\users\public\documents\autodesk\civil 3d projects. the default working folder is also used for autodesk vault projects and local (non vault) survey projects.
