All Drawings Mysteriously Unlinked

[Anonymous]

Has anyone every had experienced an issue in AC10 where all of the drawings that are placed on all of the layouts in file become unlinked? The problem is resolved by going to each one and right clicking and clicking link drawing to. Archicad will automatically find the correct view to link the drawing too, or just remembers it, either way it is a bit disconcerting due to the fact that had it gone unnoticed a print may have gone out without the drawings being up to date.

Well, I will have to keep that in mind for next time, as I am sure there will be a next time. We have already gone back and relinked them all.

ArchiCAD 11 Hotfix build 1086 fixes a bug that may cause similar problems. It's related to TeamWork: If Admin forces out a user that has layouts in his/her workspace, drawings on that layout may unlink themselves. This is - I believe- unique to ArchiCAD 11, though.

The other linking problem (marker linked to drawing on layout unlinks itself) is also fixed in 1086. this is not TeamWork specific.

Just for reference, I have never used teamwork (I work well alone), so my external links turning red must be from something else. Most often it occurs right after merging the old converted pmk file, which was changed from placed pmk's to hotlinks. I will be hopeful this eliminates my problem.

This was a problem on a project in Archicad 10.
