Transferring Composite Attributes

Anonymous — Wed, 10 Dec 2008 02:27:25 GMT

I have been attempting to use attribute manager to transfer a series of composites into a drawing. When importing the composites they are losing theig default fills and all the composites have been set to have the first fill in the fill list.

Hi Damien

Try using a pln file instead of an aat file. We have observed this same issue over the last few weeks and it seems a bit more reliable.

Either way, I am sure you'll need to import the fills first, and linetypes if they don't already exist.

Cheers,

Also ...

Just make some walls and other stuff using the composites. Copy them and pase into the destination file. I should all go in.
