SANTA FE Posted February 5, 2004 Share Posted February 5, 2004 I'm a VW Architect Newbie. I copied an .mcd file from my win98 machine at home to a sandisc mini cruzer (chip/disk) for plotting thru the VW vieweri'd installed on a machine at my office. When I opened the file at work the VW viewer on a machine without quicktime, the software questioned fonts and, rewrote the file with different classes and layers than I had edited in. Millwork was deleted. Building sections were deleted. The foundation plan, roof framing plan and mechanical plan were gone. the classes that were edited to appear on the appropriate layers did not appear. On return to my home machine I realized I hadn't copied the file to the mini disk at all, I'd transferred it and the altered classes and layers are all I'm left with!!! 1. Has anyone had this problem with the viewer? 2. Can you suggest a way to recover the lost layers and classes? Thanks, Conrad Skinner Quote Link to comment
