Create Equipment - Cannot add nozzles

I have made a couple of simple equipment and add them as templates.  the first time i created them, I was able to add nozzles to locations that i wanted by clicking on the +nozzle icon after selecting the piece of equipment.  But later, when I reopen the model and want to add that piece of equipment to the model using the template, the nozzles no long are showing up and when i try to use the +nozzle icon, the add nozzle dialog box flashes then goes away.. I'm left with these in lines in the command lines:

After some testing, I figured out that this started to happen after we copied the catalog files from my C: drive to a network location, and had the Spec Editor to point to that network location.  As soon as I pointed the catalog files back to the on in C: the error went away. 


Any thoughts on this and work arounds so we can store and point the catalog files in a network location so all workstations are on the same catalog?

 

thanks

I think that once your cats are moved, if you then open your specs with spec editor and repoint them to the cats on your network drive (should say 'cant find catalog...' browse to new location, then resave the specs.

do you know if there is a way of moving the nozzle catalogue onto a network, at the minute it is on my C drive and i cant figure out how to change where p3d looks for it?
