Missing Objects at Start up

Anonymous
Not applicable
When I load our Release 15 Template, I get a message to say that the following are missing from Attributes:

Zone_Stamp_01 10 (4 instances)
Lines H alpha1 (1 instance)

As the model is empty at this point, I have no idea what these are, or why they should be missing, but it would be quite nice not to have this dialogue box appearing every time.

Any clues, anyone?

For the missing zone type, you can delete it similarly in the attribute manager, or instead change the zone stamps which have that one assigned to it. There will be the instances that you note
Options>Attributes>Zones


After you assign a loaded zone stamp, reload your libraries and there should be no missing zone stamps or line types. That said, if they are used in a detail, worksheet, or s/e then you may have to track down the placed instances and make the correction there.

Almost!

I found 4 zone names that utilised the zone stamp definition which couldn't be found. So, as you suggested, I simply deleted them, and that problem's solved.

But the line type remains a mystery. I hadn't even realised that this was a line type name, but it's certainly not a line type in the drawing.

Any other ideas?

Just because its name says "Lines" does not necessarily mean it is a line type.
It may be a Texture. Check texture names of Materials in the Attribute Manager.
