I am using the JIC125 symbol library in AutoCADE 2013. I did not like the way that the source and destination arrows looked and how the attributes defaulted, so I went into the library and editing each drawing that gets referenced by the blocks in projects. Essentially all I changed is the size of the arrow and the alignment of the attributes.
But when I insert a new source/destination arrow now, it still has the old style. I tried closing out autocad and verifying the project settings for the location it looks to for the symbols, but I can't figure out why it's not inserting the modified new blocks.
Does anyone have experience making minor modifications to the symbol libraries and getting your projects to default to those drawings when you insert symbols?
Thanks,
Justin

Hi there,
Two thoughts. If you are inserting the new geometry into a drawing that already has the block within the drawing you need to do one of two things:
Remember, even if there are no visible blocks, if the block reference is in the drawing ACE will reference that one before it goes outside the drawing to look for a new version of a block with the same name.
Please comment if this is a solution and kudos are always welcome.
Good luck
