Autodesk Design Review

[#1]

Good morning,

2 days ago I switched to AutoCad LT from inventer (long story). It appears that design review no longer works for me as it does nothing when I try to open up DWG files. I get no error message either.

I have updated trueview, reinstalled both deisgn review and true view to no avail.

Are there any issues between LT and these applications I am not aware of?

Any help would be great

thanks in advance

ADR2013 does not open DWG files: it's a DWF viewer.

LT, ADR and DTV (DWG Trureview) can coexist on the same PC just fine: did you completely uninstall ADT and reinstalled the combo (ADR and DTV)? recommended.

Is LT no longer on the PC? I don't know if Inventor was an influence: what is the default DWG file application on your PC?

Previously I could open design review, select the dwg which it would them open allowing me to save a dwf file?

How can I create a dwf file from CAD if design review does not work with dwg files no longer?

You can PLOT or PUBLISH (or EXPORT in newer versions) to a DWF from AutoCAD, regardless of version.

AutoCAD can also be set to "auto-publish" DWF files when you exit a DWG: OPTIONS command's PLOT tab controls this setting.

I am still confused here.

I was able to open design review, select a DWG file and it would open as a dwf file before, showing me all layout pages.. I assume some sort of conversion was happening on the fly. This no longer takes place. Has something changed with 2013 or am i missing something here? I have true view installed and I am running LT.

Using the publish method does work but very slow.

Seems to work fine here (which is no help to you of course): I have AutoCAD 2013, LT2013, DTV2013 and ADR 2013 installed, Win7 Pro.

Time for a reinstall perhaps?
