    <description>&lt;P&gt;Thanks Maxim!&lt;BR /&gt;Yes, i do have mapped my drive on pc as Z:\....the problem is that i don't know how to fill or load the "server path mapping" dialog box. The dialog box appears perfectly but when i fill the row the " ok" button is still grey, never activates. I hope you understand me...thanks!&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P style="margin: 0in; margin-bottom: .0001pt;"&gt;&lt;SPAN style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';"&gt;I am trying to map a file path in AutoCAD for Mac so that drawings could be shared with users of the Windows version without losing Xrefs. I found this in the knowledge network describing how to map paths for Xrefs located on a Windows server:&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;

      <description>Hi Yumiko,&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;Yes, you can map Xref path in AutoCAD for Mac, so if Xref was added on Windows side you will be able to load Xref on Mac and Windows users will be able to see that Xref too. But there is no such tool (Xref mapping) in AutoCAD for Windows, so if you will add Xref on Mac side, Windows users will not be able to see such Xref in AutoCAD for Windows without editing Xref path.&lt;BR /&gt;In short - in order to be able to successfully collaborate with Windows users Xref should be added first time on Windows side, then mapped with XREFPATHMAP on Mac.&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;About Dropbox: do you mean local Dropbox folder? Or Dropbox folder on network drive? Please provide more details.&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;</description>

      <description>Hi Yumiko,&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;Xref mapping feature in AutoCAD for Mac designed to work with server paths, but local Dropbox folder is a local folder on your Mac. So you cannot use XREFPATHMAP to map path to Dropbox folder on Mac.&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hello! I have just bought a Macbook pro and i can't access my xref paths. They are all stored in my google drive under a windows path. Can anybody help me with&amp;nbsp;&lt;SPAN&gt;XREFPATHMAP? I tried to load both mapping address but no success...&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;Thanks!&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;</description>
