hntrak Posted October 20, 2008 Share Posted October 20, 2008 I am working with a set of drawings, each one references a base map, which in turn references a utility line. When I open the base map, I see the utility xref, and it is in the right place, but when I open up the final drawing (any one from the set of 31) only the base map shows up. I have checked the Visretain variable (set to '0'), and have also wblocked both the base, and the utility drawings - and re-xrefed each one. All to no avail - what am I missing (I am sure it is something simple) ... I would appreciate any help in this area. Thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hntrak Posted October 20, 2008 Author Share Posted October 20, 2008 Okay, it makes no sense, but after binding the utility xref to the map base, and saving - then the utility would show up in the final drawing. After that I 'undid' the bind xref, saved, and it still works - Thanks Autodesk! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asos2000 Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 I think that is the reason See attached Reference Type Attachment : Display that xref when use the drawing as an xref to another drawing. Overlay : Ignore Displaying that xref when use the drawing as xref to another drawing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
