DRAWING NOT SHOWING IN PLOTMAKER LAYOUT

Anonymous — Thu, 23 Jun 2005 23:45:23 GMT

The imported drawing in layout only shows up as a frame. Checked in Drawing Setting, and it's not in "frame only". Update numerously times. Still getting a frame only. Any ideads?

putting your archiCAD version and machine specs in the post might help narrow things down a bit.

first thing off the top of my head: there was a bug in the plotmaker 9 whereby a drawing wouldn't update from a PLN view if the PLN was open on another machine across the network.

not sure if it got nailed in 'hot-fix 3' either, but if you haven't patched archiCAD be sure to go Help>Check For Updates...

Have you moved drawing contents? If not checked as "fit frame to drawing" in PM view you might be looking at a blank view (as AC/PM9 can redefine actual view)
