AEC Walls showing as single lines (not showing up correctly)

We recently upgraded to AutoCAD Architecture 2013 Man Madfrom Architecture 2011 Man Happy and am having all sorts of intermittent issues with walls showing up as single lines in x-refs (even though the file being refrenced has been brought into 2013 and shows correctly when opened by itself).  We are also having intermittent issues with the plans and walls themselfs showing as a single line.  I need assistance on strightening this out as we have several jobs pending construction that are all having this issue in incosestant areas.

 

Additional Info: Windows XP Pro - 32 Bit

 

Thanks!

Nick

The original is no longer avail, as it was opened with 2013 and saved. Our back up systems only go back a few months and this has been an issue since we upgraded. Attached is the file that was reconstructed in 2011 once these issues started arising...

 

The precision is interesting... but are the values you are referring to 1 and/or ten millionths of a decimal degree? This is such as extreme amount for any structure. I would imagine that maintaining such precision though the progression of a project would be near impossible while maintaining any real world budget.

 

Thank you for all your help - we have not encountered the issues like the ones described above in any 2013 created drawings, but only in projects that were already in progress in 2011 once we switched over. 2013 crashes on multiple machines doing varying tasks at extremely intermittent times... Which is why we are switching back to 2011 for our new jobs, but that is a whole other story. The previous provided file was a 2011 file that had been "updated" to 2013 via opening & saving during some working procedures.

Hi,

I had a look at the file in 2012 and it's fine. I ran some tests with 2013 release and I have good news.

In my beta release of AutoCAD Architecture 2013 SP1 on a virtual system, the file opens up fine, the walls are displayed. It's the same for the file that had already been converted to 2013.
So development had already been working on this issue. As I know SP1 should be available soon, so for those of you who are facing this issue, please check out the download side:

In a few days, I can't tell an exact date, sorry for that.

Regards,


Barbara
