Xrefs not showing up when i plot

Anonymous — Tue, 16 Apr 2019 19:57:21 GMT

Hello, I'm having an issue with my Xrefs not showing up when I go to plot. The drawing shows up in paper space on my title block but when I plot nothing is showing up. Any help would be great.

Thanks

Maybe a silly one but the layer that the xref is on is it set to plot?

Hope this helps!

Hello, yes it looks like the layer is set to plot. Thanks for the advice if you have any other solutions I'd be happy to hear it.

Thanks

Just to check that the xref isn’t on a defpoints layer? Or created on this layer then xref’d?

The final option i have seen before is to run Recover on the dwg file (sometimes could be a glitch)

It is all I can think, I hope this helps!

What layer is your xref on? Is it set to plot? Try restarting your machine... same results?

I checked the layer to make sure it wasn't on defpoints. I'll try running the recovery and see if that helps. Thanks again.

Its set on layer 0. Just to make sure how do I double check to make sure its set to plot?? Maybe I'm looking at the wrong thing.

Thanks

I found one of my drawings was set on DEFPOINTS. I appreciate the help.
Thank you
