publisher crash w/ .dwgs

Anonymous — Wed, 04 Apr 2007 16:47:37 GMT

I crash in publisher when I try to publish .dwgs, or when I hit the options button to try to set up the format (or whatever is under the options tab, I don't' really know). Any help? Thanks.

I am simply highlighting my elevations, plans crash too, and hitting publish w/ the format for .dwg Sometimes the saving dialog comes up and it crashes when I hit continue. I crash immediately if I hit options.

when this happened to me i didn't have time to figure out why it happened but my quick fix was to publish as a dxf or dwf (cant remember which). then i opened the dxf/dwf in archicad and published as dwg. pretty rough way to go about it but the engineers got what they needed.

....this crashes even when I hit the format button in organizer. I havn't been able to publish as .dwgs, dxf, etc. for quite a while.
Any help.....other than a re-install?

Which build of Archicad? Is the Structural Grid addon installed?

Exactly. Add-Ons can be evil. We had crashing DWGs for months (when publishing) until we unloaded the Upgrade DWB plugin, and voila - miraculous - everything worked.

We've installed the latest updates available for archicad 10 on the graphisoft site and still we crash whenever publishing - is the plug in mentioned a part of the updates or something else? where can i find it?

we also have trouble with publishing multiple views through the layout book - comes out as one layer only no matter what we do... any ideas?

Is it sections? I have a new issue that came up yesterday where I needed to update and print a section, and after rebuilding the section , updating the placed drawing, it looked fine on screen, but only printed 10% of the 'stuff' that it should have. You mean like that -- or it won't publish at all?

This is also happening here. At the office we have 10 licenses and this only happens on my computer which is a brand new MacPro. We never had this issue on the iMac ones.

I reinstalled and updated ArchiCAD (after a complete unistall) to version 10 - 1188 int FULL - for teamwork and it keeps crashing whenever I push "options" for DWGs.

Any help is greatly appreciated!
Best,
