    What is this?... Again

    Hello all,

    (sorry, i posted this in wishes by accident first)

     

    This symbol just started showing up on any drawing I open in Civil 3d 2012.  It also shows up on "Drawing 1" when I start cad. It doesn't have any sort of message when I hover over it, I can't click on it, and everything seems to be working,,,

     

    I started work this morning in a drawing and it wasn't there, closed cad, started cad, and it was there.

     

    Has anyone seen this before?

     

    Sorry if this has been covered; I tried looking for it the boards, but it's hard to describe in the search.

     

    Thanks,

    Rand Waltz

    Wow! Sudden Service!

     

    Thanks to both of you.  I had opened a drawing with a lidar-based surface earlier and that dialog box popped up.  Earlier I had ignored it but last time I said okay. 

     

    Thanks again!
