saveall command missing

Anonymous — Thu, 30 Aug 2018 12:32:23 GMT

I just upgraded to Autocad LT 2019 and can't use SAVEALL COMMAND, is there any other way to save multiple drawings at the same time?

What else doesn't work, how about CLOSEALL?
Did you use the MIGRATION tool to move content from a much older AutoCAD version?
Do you have a 3rd party add-on?
Have you reset R2019 to see if it comes back?
Have you tried a reinstall yet?

SAVEALL works just fine in R2019 in our office.

I suggest a reinstall, answer yes when prompted to replace files: let us know what you find.

What is happening when you initiate the command?

LT doesn't support Express Tool and I think SAVEALL is part of the Express tool set

unless this changed with 2019

Thank you.

Its funny that LT can't do saveall but it does close all.

Look like it made the leap into LT around 2009

Its that odd line between LT and full AutoCAD

AutoCAD (fullversion) also not, with a complete standard installation 😉

Ahh, I missed the part that you were using LT, my apologies. I'll ask the moderator to move you to the correct forum.

SAVEALL and CLOSEALL in LT are only available when you right-click on a FileTab but no where else, not even as typed commands. Try it now.

SAVEALL in AutoCAD LT 2024 is unknown
but you can right click on any tab open then you can see Save All, also u can do different commands as you can see in the pic.
I hope this helps.🙂
