Phantom Zone object

Anonymous
Not applicable
I have been creating template for a customer and 2 zone objects have appeared out of no where. Now I am getting a message saying zone_01X7 is missing. Trouble is I can't find this zone on my computer or my resellers computer, I have never used zones personally and there is no reason it should be in the template, in fact I can't find where it is used in the template. It has only appeared in the last few weeks. Could this be a product of changing from V7 to V8.03. I have got around the problem by making a copy of one of the others and renaming it, but I would like to know what is causing it.

Guessing:

The default zone stamp from your AC7 project is missing from the libraries you are loading for 8.

The zone stamp isn't selected like other library parts, via the settings dialog. It's set in Options | Zone Categories. Try going there and selecting 'Basic Zone Stamp'. It should be present regardless of status of the libraries.
