AutoCAD 2019.1.1: Arc/Circle in Blocks Not Plotting (if linetype not continuous)

Anonymous

Upgraded to 2019.1.1 release last evening, and now arcs and circles within blocks, whose linetype is not Continuous, are no longer plotting. Straight lines/rectangles within the block, having the same layer & linetype, do plot correctly. A symbol with arcs or circles ends up plotting at weird relation to their scale (very similar to a LT2019 PDF issue posted on forum today). If I set that layer to a Continuous linetype (whether in original file or a drawing it's xref'd into), the arcs plot, but any other linetype I select produces an error. FWIW, if I BURST one of the blocks, the arcs will plot.

 

Test file attached (layer in question within block is T-EQPM-CABT-DOOR, and uses the HIDDEN linetype by default).

Test 1 - Finished PDF/plot appearance. Door swings on IT cabinets do not plot (regardless of plot device selected; PDF or local printer)

Test 2 - Paperspace view, showing correct appearance. Note small symbol at right inserted as a test, and how it "blows up" in Test 1 image.

Test 3 - Plot when the layer is set to Continuous linetype.

ACAD2019.1.1, possible, install 2019.1.2

ACAD2019.1.2, really?

AutoCAD MEP 2019.0.1 thats not the important information, only the Acadversion is it.

 

really? means: Did you check it yourself?

Please plot this file with one of your 2019.1.2 with that problems to PDF  and upload the pdf.

confirmed the following:

AutoCAD 2019.1.1, AutoCAD Architecture 2019.0.2 have been installed on all the machines I reviewed. All of these machine are brand new builds. Attached are a couple PDF's. The 2017 print is fine, all other prints from 2019 are off. the 2019 PDF's have been combined but are from three different users. 

 

Thanks,

Try upgrading to AutoCAD 2019.1.2.  That should solve all of the issues.

Ok, now you updated the version information.

Perhaps you don't know that but it is solved with Acad 2019.1.2

AND you have to update ACAD also for the vertical versions like Architecture(ACA).

2019.1.1 Acad is not the current version and forces this bug.

 

Updates for ACA = for ACA

updates for Acad = for the core program of ACA, which is ACAD.

Just install 2019.1.2 for ACAD also for the ACA workstations..

Be sure that your line weight is not set to 0.00 in the .ctb. If this is the case it will plot lines but not arcs and circles.
