bharris1987 Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 So I was working on a cad sheet with an xref. Basically the xref exploded by itself and copied all the lines on to the actual drawing. There are bad linetype errors everywhere, and I cant open the file without it crashing on startup at the regenerating model phase. If i xref the drawing into a new dwg all the work i had done is there and is fine and dandy... so If anyone has any suggestions on how to proceed I am all ears.

RobDraw Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 I've never heard of that happening by itself. Unfortunately, you will have to somehow rebuild the file. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bharris1987 Posted July 16, 2015 Author Share Posted July 16, 2015 I was literally just annotating in a viewport, CAD crashed and it wouldnt open back up. I changed my profile from civil to Autocad in order to open it back up. It worked but I had every single line of my Xref in my sheet file on top of my xref. I tried to go about deleting (overkill, purge, and evetually manually) but it crashed again and now it wont open at all. But if I xref into a new drawing its all there. we have a BID set going out on monday dont really want to have to rebuild the whole thing!

RobDraw Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 Would you rather redraw it? Since you have everything, utilize copy/paste to get the usable stuff into a fresh file. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bharris1987 Posted July 16, 2015 Author Share Posted July 16, 2015 just happened again on a different file. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobDraw Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 Sorry about that. What were you doing when it happened? I have a vague memory of having this happen long ago. I think it was related to improperly converting incoming files that were created with newer versions or possibly a network latency issue. Another possibilty is that it a Civil issue and someone has come across it before. You may want to post in the C3D forum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bharris1987 Posted July 16, 2015 Author Share Posted July 16, 2015 I opened a new file to check a Xref path to a title block since Im rebuidling the sheet. Was working fine yesterday, today, crazy explosion of xref lines... I am guessing it has something to do with file creation of new versions. I have the oldest version in the office. Did you find anything that worked? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
