Next since I am using Civil 3D 2017 for the above decided to try all of the above on AutoCAD 2017, again no luck For block … not found”, so again no luck Next tried to export the palette to a network location and import on a different computer, process worked fine and palette was created and populated but could not insert anything on any drawings, if right clicking on any of the block images within the palette choosing properties and clicking OK to close the properties the message is “Source drawing ……. Source file was not open during the attempt Next step was opening the source file from design center and create a brand new palette from the blocks inside the source file, again error messages along the following lines “block definition is not found in the source drawing….”. Next step tried to go back to the source file and bring in any of the blocks from the palette and again not inserting and no message Ěfter doing the above for 3 or 4 different blocks the palette just stopped inserting any of the blocks, being the ones already on the test drawing or new ones not yet tested, no message from AutoCAD if pressing F2 to check on the error After any corrections on a particular block I would save the source file and right click on the palette block image to redefine the block, after that I would go back to the test drawing to continue with the testing. Started the testing process with a brand new drawing from the template and started bringing the blocks from the palette, at the same time I had the source drawing open and was correcting any errors I found during the testing process. I can’t insert any of the blocks, tried all options below with no success:
Will describe the problem the best way I can:Ĭreated a new tool palette with a source file located on a network drive where I am the only one with full permissions and everything was working fine, including basic testing on other computers using the export/import palette for the last week today when I was finally ready to start proper testing of the palette before rolling out to other users, the palette just stopped working on a very odd occasion. Hopefully the bright people in here will give me some clues on what is going on.
I am having a head ache with tool palettes and none of the treads in here have the answer for my problem.
