Build and save custom content with the Content Manager, adding any part or element to a content library. **GD&T Symbols and Labels** Preconfigure geometric dimensioning and tolerancing symbols and save them to the symbol library for reuse; also access symbol libraries for weld design, surface finish and more. **Bills of Materials** Use commands to automate mechanical design tasks and simplify your work, with greater control over bills of materials, parts lists, associative item numbers and part references. **Drawing Borders and Title Blocks** Adapt drawing borders and title blocks to your system; each exists as a separate DWG file that can be copied and modified to refine your configuration. **Leader Annotations (AMNOTE)** Get the most out of annotations with formulas applied automatically to an object; use a template from a predefined set to display meaningful, context-based information instantly instead of creating it manually. **Custom Layer Management** Save time with commands for creating mechanical layers, so you don't have to set them up manually. **Power Dimensioning** Set preferences for power-dimensioning commands based on the current standard, so you can do more in less time. **Drawing Detailing** Use intelligent drawing tools built specifically for mechanical design; increase drafting productivity and efficiency with reusable detailing tools such as centerlines, AMSHIDE, hole tables and viewport scale ranges. **2D Calculations** Combine automatic part creation with drawing automation for maximum benefit; analyze designs efficiently and run 2D calculations such as FEM, shaft calculations and moment of inertia.  ## Questions about Autodesk AutoCAD Mechanical?
