Autocad 2015 xrefs
Autocad 2015 xrefs
(OP)
We have a user on one workstation, that is having trouble with a titleblock xref loading when he opens the file.
Here is the order of things, that makes me scratch my head.
Open file A, with titleblock xref'd in. File opens, without the xref loading, and box pops up with the usual referenced file could not be located.
Change nothing, and open xref manager, highlight that xref, and click reload, comes in no problem. That tells me it does find the file, and can load it no problem.
Exact same machine, different user profile, same cad file, open up, works fine, loads xref when first opened. Same cad file, different machine, open up, works fine, loads xref when first opened.
For the username and workstation causing the headaches (makes it impossible for him to publish drawings), the xref titleblock has been tried 2 ways. In a supported path, and with a forced full path. Both have the exact same result. Thought about a corrupted user settings file, so did the Autocad Reset to Default... Same results once autocad is started and profile rebuilt.
Any ideas?

Learned something new today, not a setting I was familiar with.
RE: Autocad 2015 xrefs
That was set to 2.... isn't that something that should have been reset when we did the "Reset Settings To Default"?
Not sure how, but it ended up set to 2... changing to 0 fixed the issue, and everything opens as expected. Strange that only one machine in the office was set that way, but there's no telling if he did that my mistake, etc...
Either way, fixed is fixed.

I'm reasonably sure that's how I ran into a similar issue with that sysvar years back :)
