And as always, make a copy of this file before you start playing with it. That way I can always reference or return to the default if needed. Instead of blowing away an entire line and replacing it with my own text, I will add an asterisk to the default line and then copy and paste it below the line being modified. These lines are for our comments and notes while working on the file. Throughout this break-down I will show examples of changes, showing both the wd.env file and the results.įirst of all, every line that starts with an asterisk (*) is ignored by Electrical. My comments will be in black under the line they are describing. Listed below in red is the default wd.env file. Where does the wd.env file live? See this blog post.

This file is pivotal to setting up a proper networked/multi-user environment. These files can include the catalog and footprint lookup databases, slide libraries, and user circuits. The wd.env file is simply a text file that contains settings and paths that direct AutoCAD Electrical to certain files and actions.
