Have you applied the new Plant 3D 2013 SP1 Data Integrity Hotfix? The issue you are having seems to be addressed in this hotfix.

i did install SP1 when it first came out but my computer went crazy and i had to uninstall Plant 3D and reinstall to get it back working.

I would encourge you to try again the update again. However, the link I sent you is for a very recent hotfix and I am sure this is not the same one you installed last time.

Hello,

 

I have the same problem,

 

I have created isometrics, all references to equipment and connecting piping and the fasteners where good.

 

Now i open the plantdrawing again and all connections to the (xref) equipment are diconnected, 

 

i have the latest SP installed (2013)

 

Even blindflanges on the equipment are disconnected.
