The Update CAD on Grid Changes is a drawing preference made from Smart Client. This setting controls whether changes made in the Smart Client grid are automatically updated in the BIM model or CAD drawing, if currently open.

The Smart Client respects the setting on model-driven values -- those that should always originate from the model -- and does not update those values.
You enable or disable the Update CAD on Grid Changes setting in the Drawing Preferences set from Smart Client. The setting affects both the Extension for AutoCAD and the Extension for Revit. See Setting Drawing Preferences.
If enabled, the following rules dictate if the CAD drawing is updated or not.
The end result of a CAD update initiated from the Smart Client grid is as follows:
