Assemblage Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 Workgroup references throughout our projects are moving around randomly in the viewports of the sheet files they're referenced in to. This is causing serious chaos in our company, and great loss of time and resources. It is also very basic functionality any company relying on drawings would expect from any CAD software. Following other threads on this site, we have studiously avoided viewport rotation, and have stripped reference files out of any contributing files to sheet files to avoid circular references. No joy. Solution please asap. PB Quote Link to comment

Assemblage Posted June 16, 2008 Author Share Posted June 16, 2008 We still don't know what's causing it, but it seems that if all the workgroup reference files are set to scale 1:1, then they arrive in the right spot. If not, they arrive in shifted (usually by just a small amount (eg 1 or 2 cm in the sheet file). So, currently we're trying remember to always set files to 1:1 scale when closing them, so they go through to other files they're referenced into as 1:1. It's very odd. We don't see why the scale of the reference should affect a sheetfile viewport when all the drawing lines etc are drawn correctly in the right place across all the various files.
