AutoCAD 2013 :: Detach All Xrefs When Exiting A Base File Instead Of Unloading Them

Nov 15, 2013

We prefer to detach all xrefs when exiting a base file instead of unloading them.  Is there a way to have autocad remember which xrefs were used in the base file so that they can be reloaded all at once next time.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Cannot Detach An Xref

Oct 30, 2013

I have a drawing that I cannot detach the Xref.  It's not making sense.

When I try to detach the Xref I get a message saying

"Xref xxxxx.dwg has multiple references.  Not detached"

I've attached a screenshot of what I'm seeing.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Plotting Xrefs To PDF In B&W

Jan 28, 2013

We setup a company template to use STB. Not trying to debate if its the right move, we simply did it because the designers grasped the concept of Named Styles rather than color styles.

Here is our setup.

AutoCAD 13 on Windows 7 with Adobe PDF or DWG to PDF

We have an xref'ed drawing of a background. We xref it on Layer XXX_BKGRD with a color of yellow and a Plot Style of Background.

In our STB file we have style named Background set to plot Black. We have Plot object lineweights and plot with plot styles selected. The VP is set to Legacy Hidden.

When we do a plot preview, its all color. No change.

Oct 16, 2012

When I work with a drawing that have several XRefs, it is too slow to open, save, or to do everything. I configured:

Is there any other way to improve the performance?

AutoCAD 2013 :: R13 Xrefs Not Inserting To World UCS?

Sep 17, 2013

I have 4 plans of the a building in separate files, all set to world ucs.  I xref in ground floor to the first floor, then move the first floorr so it aligns. I complete the same process for plant room and roof. Having saved all the files I then xref back the first floor into the ground floor using the insertion point as 0,0,0 but the plans do not align???!!! I do the same for the other plans, the plant room plan aligns with ground floor whilst the roof plan aligns with fist floor [but not ground].

I have tried reinserting numerous times but am missing something?  The files were supplied to us as dwg format but I do not know the full history.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Opening Files With Xrefs?

Apr 18, 2012

I regularly recieve files from Architects and of course they have several xrefs. I have all of particular files that are referenced, however i cannot open the main file and have them load in 2013. I also cannot click reload or even detach and then reattach them. Nothing happens. However if i open the file in 2012 it opens just fine then i can bind everything into one. is there a setting i need to change?

AutoCAD 2013 :: Slow Drawings When Using Xrefs

Oct 21, 2013

I have recently installed Autocad 2014 and am experiencing very slow and jumpy files when using x-refs. The other machines in the office where I work are not experiencing the same problem and apparently my machine is more powerful.

Originally we thought this might be a network issue (as x-refs are being referenced through the network) but when I put the actual reference files on my computer, I experienced the same issue.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Text Won't Show In Xrefs

Jun 21, 2012

if I put objects and text in the same layer, and then go to another .dwg file and then xref that file, the objects show but the text won't.

I've tried different layers and non and anotative text, but I can't get the text to show.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Linetypes Updating In Xrefs?

Sep 10, 2012

Using project navigator my drawings get xrefed from the constructs, through the views, and finally to the sheets tab.

I recently realized that I needed to fix / change my linetypes on 5 different drawings starting at the construct. When I had finally finished fixing the layer linetype / line LTscale / drawing LTscale to get it to look exactly the way that I wanted, I had to go through my views drawings, and the sheets drawings, detach the xrefs, re-attach them, and then modify the layers to the colours that I wanted.

Some people had the same problem about 10 years ago in this thread, and the poster at the bottom sums it all up nicely. This is not a VISRETAIN issue. I just want changes to my linetype changes to flow through all xrefs, just as if I had moved a line.

[URL]

I would like to see a setting added to CAD that would allow linetype changes to flow through, and a colour setting that would allow colour changes to flow through. Maybe VISRETAIN is too broad of a command, and needs to be broken down into linetypes, colours, LTScales. etc etc etc.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Reloading Xrefs After Updating Path

Jan 8, 2013

After some infrastructure changes, I need to repath all of my xrefs.  I know I can easily do this using the Reference Manager, and I have.  However, when I open the drawings that I have updated, the xref images (jpg, png, etc) do not display, but rather only show the image border.  I must then go into the External References pallette in each drawing and reload each reference.  This works fine, but it is awfully clunky, as I must do this for every drawing.

Is there a way I can batch reload these references after updating the path in Reference Manager?

AutoCAD Architecture :: Recover Files And Xrefs In 2013

Apr 15, 2013

I'm using Autocad 2013. My problem is when i use "recover files & xrefs", all the files recovered are saved as a 2013 dwg version. As we all save our files here as 2007 version so when others opened the files they are getting some of the xref files missing in the drawing. 

Is there any option to save files in a lower version when i recover?

AutoCAD 2013 :: Any Way To Turn Off Selecting Xrefs When Hatching?

Mar 13, 2013

I am accidentally selecting the xref when hatching and thought I remembered a setting or something to where you could make it where the xref couldn't be selected when hatching? I know the work around. Just unload the xref and then hatch, just thought their was a setting for this.

AutoCAD 2013 :: How To Use Overlay To Prevent Some Circular Xrefs

Sep 27, 2013

Trying to use overlay to prevent some circular xrefs. When the civil plan is xreffed as an overlay, the images and pdf's xreffed in the civil file show up in the file it is xreffed into. As an overlay, this should not happen? the problem is that that both the civil and piping drawing has the same pdf xreffed and it is doubled up. Does overlay not work for images and pdf's? is there something else?

AutoCad 2D :: Why Detach Is Not An Option For XRef

Jun 12, 2012

I cant figure out why detach is not an option for an x-ref I have overlaid on my drg, there are other files attached to the x-ref in question, which I suspect is the issue.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Detach Xref When Drawing Closed

May 29, 2012

Is there a setting that would cause a xref to detach itself when the drawing is closed? I have an existing model, went through the time to relocate all the attachments.

Once everything is attached I save my work close it out and move to another area, when I open up the model I was working on before with all the attachments that I had located, the xrefs are no longer attached and I must redo all the work that was done previously.

AutoCAD .NET :: Code To Detach Xref Of Known File Name / Path

Aug 23, 2012

A part of an application I'm writing involves detaching a specific xref of known filename and path from an open drawing.  I'm having a surprising amount of trouble figuring out how to do this or finding any examples "out there" (A'desk forum, the googles, A'desk developer's guide).  I have the code for attaching an xref, but detaching is presenting unexpected problems.

Maya Animation :: Detach Object From Character Set?

Sep 30, 2010

I have an animated character from which at a certain point i need an object to be 'detached' from the character and animated on its own, problem is as soon as i want to manipulate that part of the character i get this gray manipulator tool that tells me nothing will move, should i give up my whole dream upon this? Maybe i should have visibility turned and switch to a duplicate up to that point in the timeline, problem is i havent been able to move a duplicate either so far, back to hell.

Revit :: Detach / Purge And Remove Links

Sep 11, 2013

I have a request from an Architect to detach, purge and remove links from my model every time before I upload. I used to clean up received models (MEP 2008-2010) thinking it would increase performance. It's been a years since I have done this and my model performance behaves no differently. Is there any validity to his claims that this is beneficial on the Architectural side?
