Civil3D Command Setting Defaults Issue

jfreeseFVLGU — Mon, 22 Jan 2024 20:02:55 GMT

Hello C3D community,

I am currently editing our company templates to change defaults of different commands such as CreateAlignmentEntities, etc to our own styles rather than Standard. The issue is every time I change something in the template, save, and reopen all of my edits are gone. How can I get these changes to stay in my template?

I have attached our template for reference

It seems to be hold for me. Where is your DWT located? Server or local workstation?

Make sure your Civil 3D Profile points to that file...

It is on our server. So maybe that is an issue. I will test on my personal computer real quick. Would you happen to know why that would be causing this issue?

Do you have permission to save the DWT to that server location?

When I opened your DWT it had changes made to the command setting for the CreateAlignmentEntites changed already. Are you loading the corrected dwt file.

I am able to save the DWT in the server file, as I have built these templates from basically scratch. I did notice though when I loaded my DWT onto my personal computer the overrides are applied... This also is not the first time this has happened, as I changed these before without realizing the changes "never saved". It must be getting stored somewhere though if it applys on my PC

So I came back to the office today (was working remotely before) and the default styles are now applied... sorry for the confusion; not sure what was going on yesterday.
