derek Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 My software seems to have developed some fairly minor bugs over the last few weeks. 1. I can only open drawings or start a new drawing through the command line. The explorer preview window has dissapeared. 2. When selecting any entity I'm no longer given the layer preview information from the "layers 1" toolbar drop down window. Obviously I have re-installed the software to try and cure the problem but no luck so far. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReMark Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 1. Reset FILEDIA equal to 1 then try again. 2. Huh? The layer preview information? Are you talking about Quick Properties? 3. Your first option should have been a REPAIR. When that fails then you do a REINSTALL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No not the quick properties, the layers 1 toolbar. when you select any object that should tell you which layer it's on. Mines doesn't do that anymore and i dont use quick properties as it drives me nuts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReMark Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 So do you have the toolbar up on your screen or not? Sounds like you may have made an edit to the CUI regarding the way this toolbar operates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derek Posted September 14, 2009 Author Share Posted September 14, 2009 Yeah, I have the toolbar but the layer status remains the same when selecting anything. ie. it remains on the current layer rather than the conventional change to preview the objects layer your selecting.

ReMark Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 Did you edit the CUI for this toolbar at some point? See AutoCAD Help > Toolbars > Controls on.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derek Posted September 14, 2009 Author Share Posted September 14, 2009 No I havn't changed anything like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReMark Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 Well then having not editted the CUI I cannot explain why the Layers toolbar fails to work properly as you describe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 No I havn't changed anything like that. Perhaps you inadvertently changed it. Go to the help menu check your settings Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chulse Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 Would the MAXSORT value have anything to do with that? ...nope, I guess not... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReMark Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 MAXSORT? I doubt it very much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
