-Proxy objects are placeholders for custom objects created by ObjectARX® applications, such as AutoCAD® Mechanical, Autodesk® Architectural Desktop, and Autodesk® Land Desktop.+**Proxy objects are placeholders for custom objects created by ObjectARX® applications, such as Inventor®, AutoCAD® Mechanical, Autodesk® Architectural Desktop, and Autodesk® Land Desktop.**
  
-By default, proxy object messages are displayed when opening a dwg in plain AutoCAD if the application that created the custom objects is not currently running. For example, if a drawing created in Autodesk Mechanical Desktop is opened in plain AutoCAD®, objects that were created as Autodesk Mechanical Desktop objects are displayed as proxy objects.+By default, proxy object messages are displayed as simple empty rectangles when opening a DWG in plain AutoCAD if the application that created the custom objects is not currently running. For example, if a drawing created in Autodesk Mechanical Desktop is opened in plain AutoCAD®, objects that were created as Autodesk Mechanical Desktop objects are displayed as proxy objects

 +Also, when you open a DWG with proxy object, Rhino reports //"Unsupported entity type: AcDbProxyEntity, ACAD_PROXY_ENTITY"// on the Rhino command line. (Use F2 on the keyboard to read the entire text screen.
  
 Here you can perform operations such as moving and copying proxy objects. However, special editing operations unique to the ObjectARX application are not available. For example, you cannot perform parametric modifications to Autodesk Mechanical Desktop objects in any application other than in Autodesk Mechanical Desktop. Here you can perform operations such as moving and copying proxy objects.
