drawing manager losing links + drawings not updating in AC13

Anonymous — Wed, 07 Jul 2010 13:55:11 GMT

can anyone help us with the following:

why is it that AC13 often loses the link to external drawing sources - even with manual updates/images stored in project ? can anything be done to limit this problem? is there an issue perhaps with the server connection/setting?

the real issue we're having though is when we re-link to the source drawings, the drawing manager gives a 'Not read yet' status and no image (pdf, jpg, dwg, etc) appears in the layout at all. even when we place an new instance of the image, the drawing manager simply says 'not read yet'...

we are currently working in Teamwork mode but this has been happening in solo projects as well...

many thanks

thanks - i took the 'miraculous' method and it worked !?
sometimes a good restart is a little under-valued...

still- why do external links so often go missing? suggestions on this?
