Referenced DWG always reimported on file open


bjoerka

Question

just try the following.

import a single dwg file.

in the import window mark "referenced", "abolute path", "save referenced cache to disk" and mark "Automatically update...."

let the import go, then save the file and close it.

reopen the file and vw reimports the dwg file.

i tested this with several dwg files and it happens to all of them.

i guess that there is something wrong, because vw thinks that the files have been changed since the last opening command. but here all files reside from where they were opened and have not been touched during the closing and reopening of the vs file.

Its looks like even though the option is labeled "Automatically update out of date reference during file open" that in practice and in the Help description it actually just updates any references with this setting enabled upon file opening.

Either its not working properly, or it is working properly and is mislabeled. However i'm guessing the former.

Submitting as an issue now.
