Hi, im having a problem with my layers and also xref colours. Im using AutoCAD 2005 atm and my problem is that when I freeze,turn off or change the colour of an xref layer it works but when I save and close then open again those layers I changed have reverted back. (almost like autoCAD is forgetting what i've done) If i create a new drawing file and attach those xrefs and border everything works perfectly but I have a lot of drawings which were recieved for a project and all have the same problem so im just wondering if there is a setting or something that can fix this or are they all just corrupt or something.

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance,

 

Sean.

Make sure your VISRETAIN command is set to 1.
