Dear Katie and George, Just want to clarify that George's method is a very handy fix indeed. I will certainly use it. But I still would like to know from Katie (or anybody else) if the problem can be prevented at all and if VW10 has fixed it. M. Hobson

Dear George and Katie, Tried George's suggestion and indeed it works (and all previously disapeared layer links showed up). Thanks a lot for that, George. Katie, Is there anything that can be done in order to prevent the problem? And also, is the problem fixed in VW10? Regards, M. Hobson

Thanks for your reply Katie, We have tried your suggestion out. Does not solve the problem. Have you tried the exact steps I described in my first note, including your suggestions? M. Hobson

Who can give me the solution to the following LAYER LINK problem in VWs: When making changes to one of the ORIGINAL layers of a layer link, it very often happens that all the layer links at the same time disapear . We then have to newly link all the layers, i.e. ALL the sheets containing LLs. This happens on all our computers. They are: G3 B/W (OS 9.1), a Starmax (OS 8.6), and 2 brand new iMacs G4 700 (OS 9.2.) All run VW 8.5.2. On the G3 I have also tried the same in a VWs 9.5.1 demo version Arch. with Landmark . Same result. On the Starmax which has the problem, I have trashed the VW preferences and VW and then reinstalled VW. No difference to the disapearing links though. It happens on both older and newly started files. One of the actions to try this problem out is: On an ORIGINAL layer of a layer link do: custom visibility - show only - 2D loci. Then restore normal visibility. Go to a layer link. Then links have disapeared. Appreciate your help.
