Anonymous
Not applicable
in my project i am using standard library parts such as windows and doors. every time i change a setting in the part and look at it in a 3-D window i receive about five warnings per part. the first warnings are as follows

fill not found
at line 127 of file dp_french_door_panel_81.gsm

i receive about four of these similar messages then i receive one that looks like this

their are several problems with this file.you can
cancel this operation with Ctrl/Command - period.

i don't know why their is an error and the objects look fine. any help would be well appreciated.

It is possible you havent all the libraries you need loaded in the library manager. Often a library part refers to another library item or macro. Hence the error message only when trying to generate the library part and not when the manager is loaded.
You will need to track down the missing items. Try opening the library part (opt/command o on mac) and look at the line in question

That particular error is a missing fill. He'll need to figure out what fill it is and use Attribute Manager to bring it. We'd need to see the other messages to help you further!
