Well that indeed lets me make permanent changes to the style library (I did back up the original). I have 4 distinct styles that I need to implement. by saving each one I end up with the last saved style on all my templates. Now I just need to figure out how to have them all co-resident...
I expanded all the lines and there is no reference to the templates anywhere. The line for "libraries" is greyed out but if you click on it you get the option to add a new path. But there are none listed currently.
There is a line that says "use style libraries = read only. If I right click...
I can't find anything that relates the template folder to a library. In win explorer it is listed just as a file folder.
I appreciate all the help and effort, but I think I am going to have to devise another method to get this going and try and contact autodesk. Like I said before, it...
powerhound,
What "Object Default" Icon? I don't have one showing.
I just noticed that the header on the window shows "Styles and Standards Editor [Library - Read Only]". Could it be that I can't change any thing in this mode. If so, how do I get access to the library (write access). This...
aardvarkdw,
Yes the mods are all the parameter changes I made within my new custom style. All return to default as I mentioned when trying to use the template for what it is intended.
ok, saving to desktop reopening and sava as to template directory did not loose any modifications. However, "file/new" got me back to the same thing as before. All mods are gone. I don't know if I already mentioned this but the system still shows my custom style for the company as active but...
That is what I am doing... When I open the file from explorer, the styles are correct for what I have changed. My custom style and Default ANSI are resident as local styles and my custom style is set as the active style. I even went as far as making the same changes to both styles so it...
Thanks for the reply. I have created three new templates for specific use within our company. That includes border and titleblocks and our Logos. That went off fairly easily. They are saved as specific named files. We access them from the top menu bar as: File/New/ then from the icons we...
How do I modify the default "style" to correct for our desired font type and size and other dimensioning related variables that will be used in our series of drawing template files. I have created our template formats and all is well with them, however I have tried all the "Help" methods at my...
Thanks for the help. I had been doing two things wrong. One was I made my fillets in sketch mode rather than applying them to the extruded model body. Secondly I was not dimensioning the sketch so I had nothing to retrieve. Again, thanks for the help and time spent.
Thanks for the response. I have been trying that method, but it keeps selecting the center of the arc (40")and not the intersection point of the line and the arc. What I have is basically two parallel horizontal lines and two large circular arcs for vertical segments. The top and bottom lines...
