Drawing System Variables
autocad_entity: autocad_info
AutoCAD drawing files contain variables that store information such as configuration of the file and its usage.
When the AutoCAD reader parameter Read Drawing System Variables is set, a feature is created that lists some of the those variables and their values as attributes.
See the Autodesk AutoCAD application documentation for details on the system variables and their values.
You can set the following attributes:
