MISSING DRAWING VIEWS

MISSING DRAWING VIEWS

MISSING DRAWING VIEWS

(OP)
Hi all,
We created models/drawings and at the end of the project had to re number all details/parts. New drawings(old drawings with new numbers)reference the the correct parts, but all views in drawings are dashed boxes with "x" thru them. View properties list the correct part however. have seen this before and do suffer form CRS, sorry. Any ideas?

RE: MISSING DRAWING VIEWS

SW files should be renamed using SW Explorer, not Windows explorer. You dwgs can not find the new file names. Right click on the part listed in the tree and replace with the new one.

RE: MISSING DRAWING VIEWS

Are these views or sections and details? If there sections and details,  you can edit the sketch where they're created from, and they should restore themselves.
