Hi Folks,
bit of a different/interesting problem here. i have been given a site layout to edit for a client and have been going through and cleaning it up. there are a large number of blocks in the drawing and i want to put them all on new/correct layers. however when i do the lines/test in the blocks are not addopting the new layer attributes.
My workflow;
- edited all blocks and put all entities (as required) on layer 0 with all properties set as "by layer". (The block lines/text take on layer 0 attributes in the editor and when i exit the editor the entities are all white as if they are on layer 0. if i turn the visibility of layer 0 off the entities disapear as if they are on layer 0.)
- created new layer with correct attributes
- placed block on to new layer
- nothing changes.
what i have tried to fault find this;
- exploded all entities in the block (no other blocks inside blocks) - no change
- double checked all entities are on layer 0 with properties set to "by layer" - everything is set correctly
- tried adding some new entities on layer 0 to see if they would act as expected - they did not
- tried a "RE" redraw - no change
- tried inserting a new version of the block and changing it - no change
- tried changing some settings on the block in the block dialog box then "redefining" it when inserting - no change
- tried creating a new block on layer zero and then placing that on a new layer - same behavior, lines do not adopt layers attributes.
- copied the block to a new drawing and placing it on layers in the new drawing - block behaves as expected. not only does this work but it brings the layer it was on in the drawing that i am having troubles with and responds as expected in the new drawing on the copied layer!! so this leads me to believe that it is a setting in the original drawing. i did try to copy the whole thing and paste it into a new drawing, but it fails every time i try.
so does anyone have any idea on why the blocks wouldn't be updating? what is set to zero that should be set to one or vise versa?
to add to this, i have a feeling that if this drawing was created in autocad it was done a LOOOONG time ago. but i have a feeling it may have come from another program, or at least large chuncks of it have, due to the names of a lot of the blocks and layers. (not xref names.)
Thanks in advance for any help.
