nativedog Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 I have a number of drawings that I am working on that I need to xref in image files for backgrounds. I am working in MEP 2013. Initially I am loading the xref via the insert tab then "attach" command. It loads fine, shows up , I clip and adjust its location in the dwg, save and plot and close the dwg. The next time I go to work on the dwg I cannot see the xref only the link and when I go to reload it wont let me. I receive the error "not found." I end up having to detach the file and start over. Can anyone tell me what I may be doing wrong? When I attach the xref I am using relative path and overlay options. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MSasu Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 When attach the reference, please make sure that Path type isn't set to No path. It should be set as Full or Relative path - in the latest case should preserve the relative location of the files. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nativedog Posted June 28, 2012 Author Share Posted June 28, 2012 I had it set to relative path. My flyout for attaching actually defaults to relative path. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
