Rakela, what the heck are you talking about?

This is a known bug (I'm the one who reported it). I believe they are working on fixing it.

I found that the closest zoom before it disappeared was close enough to work, but obviously this is quite frustrating. I don't recall if I tried it but perhaps changing the resolution of the PDF (Photoshop can do this) might help. I found that changing scale did not do any good.

sorry, your time is up..im really busy.....and dont worry i will not insult you back !!

Raul,

Not sure what your last message means...looks like a moderator must have deleted some posts, since it doesn't seem to have anything to do with Matthew's last post.

GS is of course working on a hotfix for reported, reproducible bugs. If you have reported the issues you mention (which I have never experienced) through the your reseller and/or tech support and been assigned a case number, then there is good reason to hope that a bugfix will be in one of the first hotfixes.

They can only fix the problems that they know about. 😉

Cheers,
Karl

I too have had a bit of stickiness in layouts not updating.

CAnt seem to put my finger on when it occurs

You have tried right clicking on the layout and choosing update -signified by the little green circle?

Also looking forward to getting the updater tho

Have you tried using Drawing Manager, Raul? Generally a good idea to open it anyway just to verify that all drawings are up-to-date before a contract set is produced. If you select one or more of the 'problem' drawings and click the green refresh button, do they update properly without having to delete and create again?

Have you verified that the views associated with the drawings are all created properly (you do not see the word 'Custom' or 'Missing' for any setting if you open the view settings)?

Regards,
Karl

Raul: Just wondering, why you decided to use a freshly released version - AC12 - when you have obviosly strict dealines coming up? It's like asking for trouble.
I never start using the newest version until they've released at least 2 hotfixed - they're always so buggy at first, that's cert.

Just wondering, why do they need to make a half-ready release every year? I could wait a couple of months more, if they were stable. God bless quartal economy.

im with you mister and always do that, but this time was a little bit diff.....
i did a little bit of testing on AC12 before it came out , and one thing that really called my attention was the speed, ac12 has an amazing speed. is like using a lite version of a software but full in features.

Not only that, IT IS NOT THAT BAD !! and we are producing well with it, the problem is mostly mine, cuz I dont really use it much, i am more into the executives duties of the company and i dont use it in a regular basis.
but i love to help in the production side cus i just like this piece of software. and on top of that I hated version 11 from the very beginning in the first place....sorry, i cannot continue with this conversation, i have a deadline to comply with....nevertheless, it does need a hotfix.
