Forcing AutoCAD 2016 to use 940m

[DragonFox]

Hello. I have added the application to the nvidia control panel and i can't change the setting which is "High performance".

Still running the application says the intel 5500 is used. ugh.

How can i force it to use the preferred card ?

This is on a Lenovo Yoga 3 14".

Did you add this program in the Nvidia control panel tab, Manage 3D settings?

Sorry not trying to, ask stupid questions but since i cant look at it and see it first hand, i need to ask even the small things just to make sure. Did you change all the global settings around to use the Nvidia as well? If that does not work there are also some fixes from AutoDesk themselves for AutoCad 2016. https/knowledge.autodesk.com/support/autocad/troubleshooting/caas/sfdcarticles/sfdcarticles/AutoCAD-uses-the-wrong-graphics-card.html
