Yesterday I installed the new GDLExplorer2.0 and when I tried to load my own library it displayed the message: "Missing Master.gdl file" and denied the request. Can someone tell me what to do? Because it seems a very helpfu tool to use.

GDL Explorer requires a "Master.gdl" file to work. If you do not have one present in your Library you could copy the one from the example Library provided in the samples. The "Master. gdl" stores material, linetype, etc. defaults for all objects in your loaded library.

Thank you, David!
And do you have any idea how to change the default library when opening the GDLExplorer?
