I am new to SoftPlan and have been using AutoCAD for 20 years. I was looking for how to create a block in SoftPlan like you can in AutoCad.

Can you be a little more specific about this block you are referring to? An actual cmu? A block of items such as block move or block erase or block edit?

In AutoCAD, a block is a collection of objects that are combined into a single object. For example, draw a cornice detail consisting of several components (objects) and turn it into one object.

Have you read about adding symbols to your library?
