PDF is not opening after being created

[graham]

 Today I have had issues with the creation of PDF'S

I now get a textbox that tells me that my plot is working in the background.

The creation of the PDF is very slow and I cant see how to set it to automatically open when done.

Is this something to do with the recent online upgrade ?

BACKGROUNDPLOT system variable controls background plotting.

Check the properties of the PC3 file for the automatic opening setting.  There is a check box under Custom properties for "Open in PDF viewer when done"

In CAD 2017, I have my settings to create a pdf prompt upon save.  When I chose "Yes", it would create a pdf and automatically open in bluebeam.  In 2018, the pdf does not open.  I looked at the bluebeam PC3 file, and it does not have anywhere to check for "open automatically".

please help
