Class & Layer Mapping problem

[jchan]

Hi all, I'm new here, I'm working in an architectural firm. Each time we import an OS Map, we would merge the classes down to 3 different classes . It worked on version 9, but now we upgraded to 12.5.0 it doesn't let we to do it.

I clicked on the class & layer mapping form the menu bar, then selected the one I want to add, then clicked the "add" button, next I selected the classes I want to merge, but it didn't let me to clicked on the "merge" button (grey colour). it happens on both Architect/Designer 12.5.0. is it anyone have the same problem?

Not sure what your problem is exactly but I do remember having problems myself with 12.5. I'm pretty sure if you create a new mapping file you should overcome your problem, but others might have better advice.

thanks Christiaan your quick reply,

I discovery more problems after a day test ^^; it crashes when I use the batch print(100%) & plant tool (50%).

I'm not sure is it OS problem or VW problem, or I may need to re-install it again.

You'll definitely want to update to 12.5.1 as there were a few problems with batch print in 12.5.0.

is it "safe" to update to 12.5.1, I saw other comments on other topics related to the 12.5.1 update.

but I really want the problem solved, coz I can save lots of time by one click, rather than using the old method to do this simple stuff.

We had no problems.

thanks again Christiaan, problems fixed after the update!
