tiggere Posted May 7, 2009 Posted May 7, 2009 I'm having some issues with DWG Gateway...I can open the files using it but can not copy the objects I open with it into a ADT2i drawing...I have tried to save it down to a 2000 version and now ADT2i will open it but it still will not allow me to copy the object into another drawing... If I get the MFG to send me the file in a 2000 format I can copy it in just fine...I must be missing something here and any help would be greatly appreciated... Jonathan Quote
tiggere Posted May 9, 2009 Author Posted May 9, 2009 It might not actually be a DWG Gateway problem...it might be in ADT itself...some files I can open but _pasteclip (CTRL "V") won't copy the object into a new drawing...its in the clipboard and will let me insert it as a metafile or a bitmap...just won't let me pasteclip the object in... No one has any ideas? Quote
AlinOz Posted May 11, 2009 Posted May 11, 2009 Hmmmm, I'm stretching the memory here (2000 was a long time and a lot of versions ago), but if I recall correctly there was some nasty Database bug in 2000/2000i DWG Database that could prevent the Copy/ Paste function from working as expected. Try a SaveAs and take it right back to R12 (I think you could go back that far in 2000). Give it a new name so that you don't overwrite your original file though... R12 was a nice stable platform/ Database. Open it up again and see if that's given you any joy... No promises here though and Good Luck Quote
