    Hi,


    In AutoCAD 2005 the location of PLT or DWF files is imposed by the value of
    Default output directory (DWF and plot-to-file) (Publish Options dialog)


    How is posibil to change this value because I want to keep the PLT files in the same place with DWG files?


    In AutoCAD 2004 if I change the value for InitialDirectory stored in

    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Autodesk\AutoCAD\R16.0\ACAD-201:409\Profiles
    \<<Unnamed Profile>>\Dialogs\BrowseforPlotFilePlotDlg

    he change the location of PLT files.

    I make the same thing in AutoCAD 2005 but it do not work.


    Thanks for help

    (vla-put-DefaultPlotToFilePath (vla-get-output (vla-get-preferences
    (vlax-get-acad-object))) "g:\\temp")

    Or whatever path you want to change it to.

    Will this work in 2004?

    When I try, I get an error :

    ; error: no function definition: VLA-PUT-DEFAULTPLOTTOFILEPATH

    TIA
