To create project points, you first create a drawing that contains the points.
When you are ready to share the points with others, you use the Add To Project
command to add the points to the project point database. The project points
can then be accessed by others.
After you create project points with the Add To Project command, a local copy
of the points remains in the drawing. The icons displayed in the points list
view indicate the state of a point with respect to the project.
For more information, see the AutoCAD Civil 3D Help topic Adding Points to
a Project.
In this exercise, you will add points to the project from the drawing
Project-XGND.dwg, which has already been added to the project.
