This is the sort of thing that will make us run away from DraftSight and never look back. If DraftSight is trying to lure us away from AutoCAD and entice us to move up to their higher end software, this is not the way to do it. I use AutoCAD professionally on a daily basis, and would entertain switching to DraftSight, but not at the expense of 3 seconds per command. This happened both under the previous version of DraftSight, and also I just downloaded the newest version, and it still happens. This is on a Dell Precision M4500, quad core i7, less than 3 years old, still under warranty, and all drives have recently been updated to the very newest. Oddly, if I click the "line" button, the initial pause in response is much shorter, however, the pause after each successive click is a bit longer. Then I can proceed to pick points with only a brief in response after each click.

If I type a command, say "line", it takes a full 3 seconds before the mouse will respond to any input. (if necessary) If your Xrefs are still not attaching correctly, send us a technical support ticket that includes the drawing and all Xrefs.I am having a slightly different but perhaps related problem.

Yes, the Xref path is still correct: You've resolved the issue.Is the path still correct in the External References Manager? Then reopen the drawing and check the Xref path again.

Then check the Saved Path against the path to the Xref file in Windows Explorer again to ensure they match.ġH. Verify that the Xref shows up as Loaded in the Status column. Change the Xref path to the correct path.ġG. Have your IT administrator verify that both computers are accessing shared folders using the exact same mapped letter drive path.ġF. For example, it may contain a hyphen or underscore instead of a space.ġE. The mapped letter drive might be different (as in our example), or one folder in the path might be named slightly differently. If this issue happens often, it's usually a case where two computers accessing the same project files are looking at a location differently. In the example below, the path in the External References Manager is pointing to a different letter drive ( X:) from the letter drive in the Windows Explorer path. Now check the Saved Path that's listed for the Xref in the External References Manager, and compare it with the path to the same file in Windows Explorer.Ĭheck every part of this path to verify that it's an exact match with the path to the file. 1C. Once you're sure you have a good connection to the location of the Xref, open Windows Explorer and navigate to the folder where that file is stored (example: L: My Drive/CAD Drawings).ġD.
