Updating Modules in Detail Windows

[Anonymous]

anybody have an idea why AC can't update modules placed in deatil windows? It specifically gives me a warning that I MUST manually update in each and every detail window! (see attached). I only have about 30 (!) hotlinks that I now have to update... glad I didn't try to add any more before finding this out.

This seems like a really poor implementation. Why must this be so difficult? At least they warn you when the drawing is opened. If anyone knows a way to workaround this (aside from not using the detail window), I'd be grateful for a tip.

...and would support that as a tip of the month!

I'm not sure what you are using the hotlinks for in your details, so I don't know if this would help.

You could publish the drawings as DWG instead of MOD and xRef them in. I haven't used the xRef much but I know it does work in the detail windows. (I haven't tested the updating - let us all know if it works.)

I assume the problem with the hotlinks is because the detail tool is new and everthing is just not wired up yet.
