AutoCAD: Layout Preview Thumbnails
Preview all the layouts in AutoCAD for easier use.Català - Castellano - Deutsch
. In AutoCAD files with many Layout Tabs it can become quite tedious to navigate through them if one does not have a very clear coding of the layout tab names. To solve this, AutoCAD, since v.2009 has a command called QVLAYOUT that allows you to preview all the layouts with a line of thumbnails at the bottom of the screen so you can visually select to which one you want to jump to. You can even change the size of the thumbnails with the usual CTRL+Mousewheel. See below.
You can also quick access this fucntion with the QVL shortcut.

How to extract the IFC Files contained on a Tekla TBP Package
Tekla TBP Package extracting is easy using this workflowCatalà - Castellano - Deutsch
I recently received a BIM model for review (It was mainly intended for the Structural consultant to validate what the Metal Structure subcontractor was going to fabricate) and wanted to access the individual IFC files. My idea, because we were having some discussions about the total cost and extra KG of steel that a project change meant, was to import the IFC files into Revit and be able to create a schedule to obtain the total weight of the metal structure. The problem was I could not open the TBP file in revit. Of course someone had figured it out first so I followed these steps and it worked perfectly.
So the trick is to install a program that can open the TBP file and extract its contents. IN this case, using 7-zip, works perfectly. You install the program, then open the TBP file. Inside the 7-zip interface you can browse the folder structure until you find the IFC files and extract them. Worked perfect!.
