You can preview files or any version of a file listed in Autodesk Vault before getting the files from the vault.
- To preview AutoCAD .dwg files, Autodesk DWG Viewer must be installed. The Autodesk DWG Viewer is included with the installation
media.
- Autodesk Inventor View must be installed to preview Autodesk Inventor files (.iam, .ipt and .idw file types). Inventor and
AutoCAD .dwg files are displayed using DWG TrueView. All other files are displayed in the viewer associated with that MIME
type.
NoteFiles that are viewed from inside the vault are downloaded to the local TEMP directory and do not replace the files in your
working directory. The files contained in the TEMP directory can be managed using the Microsoft Windows Disk Cleanup utility.
