AutoCAD - Save and then have to save again before closing

[chanelusaHZDHK]

Why if I save the drawing and close the observante autocad messenger ask me to save the drawing again?

is it doting?

Hi @chanelusaHZDHK 

Thanks a lot for posting your question to the forums!   

 

After saving, have you zoomed in or out on the drawing? 

  

I look forward to hearing back from you with more information so we can help you as a community!

I just save and close the drawing, not zooming and nothing else. 

The problem also occurs to my colleagues who use AUTOCAD2023

@chanelusaHZDHK not seeing anything like that over here in our offices in AutoCAD2023.

Do you have a 3rd party add-on running? Something is making changes to the file after you save and before you close.

OR you are using SAVE instead of QSAVE, in full AutoCAD (not LT) those are quite different functions. Look up usage in HELP.

after you save, what is your DBMOD value?

and is it the same if you are using DWG2018 format?

and is it the same if you test it with a new files, based on acad.dwt/acadiso.dwt ?

[pendean]

Are you by chance setting your default save-format to 2013dwg for all of your files?

[TheCADnoob]

DBMOD of 1 indicates that its not pedantry... though now that leaves the question of what is changing. 

Is your drawing content far from the origin?
