Changing Layer Set Name causes Views to list it as Missing

[Eduardo Rolon]

Don't know if it is because I am running 10.5 or the latest patch that got pulled (1112) but I have noticed that if I change the name of the Layer Sets the already predefined View Sets start listing it as missing it.

Can someone please verify?

One possible solution might be having the color of the icon on the View Set panel change;

green ->Ok
yellow -> verify
red -> problem

Before printing verify that all the Plot Maker Sheets are Green, if not verify and fix.

In my templates, I have a subset of sheets at the end called "CAD Manager Reports." The three sheets there show the current attributes and status of 1) Sheets, 2) Placed Drawings and 3) Views.

If "Missing" is listed in any of them, or you notice an oddball scale or pen set assigned to something, then you'll fix it before you plot.

Nice work around and that confirms that the info is already available so changing the icon colors may be possible. Anyway, I'll figure out how you did it and start including that info in the template that I give to my students.

that is a bloody good idea . . . maybe one of the moderators could move this to the top tips section?
