Layer Isolate and Layer Manager not working

[Anonymous]

Hi there, I recently had LDD 2006 installed and it seems to affect the layers commands.
Layer "isolate and Manager" do not work anymore.
They do in Autocad.
I get this error message "bad argument type: lentityp nil".
Same message for both commands.
Any work arounds here?

You don't realize how often you use these until they don't work.
Thanks.

You got the necessary Service Packs installed along with the 2K6 app
kimvprojects?

We are using LDD 2006, just installed, no-one here has used it yet. I am the first.
HTH?
I clicked on the link and i see quite a few patches, do i need to install them all?

Oh yah, thanks for the reply Don.

I guess that means you were able to figure things out re. the proper items
to choose on that WebPage kimvprojects?

Sorry I didn't get back to your reply before now. 😞

Not really, which patch or patches should i download??

[Anonymous]

Under the Autodesk® Land Desktop 2006 header to the next Back to top on that
WebPage, I would suggest the Service Pack as a "starter" kimvprojects.

But really all of them in that same section will be possibly applicable for
your firm, as none of us are very proficient in knowing the future. ;0)

I downloaded the service pack and it said it was not needed as LDD was up to date.
Looking at the other patches I don't think they don't seem address my problem.
Any hints or other suggestions??

[Anonymous]

OK since the most helpful one has already been installed, I'll need to ask
whether you've also spoken about this issue to your System Manager
kimvprojects?

yes they have been here and can't figure it out.
The commands work fine with Autocad, but not with LDD.

[Anonymous]

May I ask if there are any other LDT releases on this PC of yours
kimvprojects?

Or is LDT 2K6 the only one?

If there were others prior to 2K6's arrival, how/when were they removed?

And that will teach me to only use the "useful portion" of the reported
error drw^3!
:-o

Including the "bad argument type: " in the Search of the KB, brought me to
the "No results were found for:" - I know so well. ;0)

Good call!

i think you may be on to something here, this is a russian project and some of the characters in translated layers are extended charcters.
but the language was not set to french.
It is set to English- united states.
