To make it easier next time, just go to file, New Library, and paste it in a library, go to properties and and click "enable to resize", then go back to your project and you can use it as much as ...

Feb 25, 2009 · I will say that the AVSnap forum is pretty good. there doesn't seem to be very many people that really use the software but the creator is active in the forum and very helpful. I keep hearing however, that if you ever have hopes of using d-Tools, that you should do your drawings in VISIO, b/c they can later be used with dtools.

Mar 16, 2009 · AVSnap is our contribution to AV world for making us grow and stay in business for the last 15 years. 3. Our selfish reason of putting Altinex logo in front of as many people as we can. Learning AVsnap. Even though the AVSnap is a free software, you can get out of it only what you put into it.

Jun 28, 2013 · I used AVSnap pretty extensively for everything from installation diagrams, to elevations for sales, etc. before ever trying Visio.

I have found it to be very powerful; so much in fact that I've been using it almost 100% since 2006. Oh yeah, and it's FREE!! I recently wrote an article about AVSnap.

Jun 28, 2013 · Looking at the history of posts about AVSnap here and on IP, I don't see a build up of interest as I would expect, given my optimism about the tool. That gives me some concern about leaping in. I don't fancy spending 40 hours building libraries and fussing to create my first designs only to learn eventually that this tool has some fatal flaws.

Mar 14, 2009 · Drawing the library symbols seems to be the longest process and also what prevents a lot of people from trying to learn the tool. I'm not saying its the best option out there, but for small companies AVSnap is Free and Jack is all about making it …

Aug 29, 2008 · AVsnap takes some time to build your main blocks (AVR's , Speakers, etc) but once done, they lay out pretty quick. One of the guys from the forum, sent me examples of what he's done, he'd been using AVSnap for a long time now more for commercial jobs, but his drawings were very professional.
