Draw Order in 2019 Not Working

jserrato25YGE

I'm using AutoCAD 2019. In paper space, I inserted an image that will have text and objects in front of it. When I select the image and change the draw order to be in the back, it works, but as soon as I change tabs, it goes back to being in the front. I've never had this problems in previous versions. Any ideas on why this is happening?

Kids are the ones that like to get the last word in, even if they are not saying anything. So fee free to retort, i am done.

But i did check your stats. Although, ~20% of your post were liked only 5% were solutions. So i guess mentor status is not based on solutions. Have a nice day! Stay safe!

Stop jamming up my email. Both of you need to go for a walk. I still
haven't solved my issue with the autocad update or any other suggestions
from this reel nor any autocad support. And this bickering isn't helping
anyones sanity.

I apologize for indulging in that divergence. I looked at your original post and just wanted to let you know that when i was discussing this with Autodesk they said they had a hotfix for 2020, but it was only given out on request. So it is important that you open a help ticket with them, they may have the answer.

 

I do apologize for all the emails that everyone on this thread must have received, from the ridiculous unrelated conversation above.

This thread has been solved multiple times. Maybe you should start your own.

Drafting is a breeze and Revit doesn't always work the way you think it should.

You never shared productversion and details of your problem.

My company does not allow me to share our work documents and as all of our
have xref links from other companies. I'm not sure as how I can send you a
legitimate copy of the issue I'm having.

It took three months for you to come back with that?! Maybe you shouldn't start a new thread. The issue needs to be replicated in order for you to get a possible solution.

Still trying to make something personal out of this? Did you think that I didn't know that the title was based on post count? I can think of a couple good titles for you that have nothing to with post count.

Grumble less, read and understand more. 😖
The link is broken because it is no longer needed.

This entire thread is a litany of you getting into little spats with people.  You might consider a career change.

Wow, I guess calling Autodesk's unnavigable mess of patches and hotfixes a ****show is like putting out a hot steaming bowl of Troll bait.  You guys need to chill out.

@tomlynham6453 All of us can get all the software updates here https://manage.autodesk.com/cep/#products-services/updates
There is no secret link needed.
If it's working and you have it installed, you can also get updates from the installed Autodesk Desktop App that installs by default with AutoCAD2019 (in your case).

It would appear you are seeking the 2019.1.2 update. Remember to restart your computer after installation, don't skip that step.

When your opinion is based on fiction, you should expect some opposition.

Oh boy, how many times have you used that one in your little nerd fights.  Here's one:

Just for me ( please come back on topic )

 

The hotfix only makes sense if you do have installed 2019.0.1 and you not want to install either the 2019.1.2 or 2019.1.1 update,
but why would you want to continue to use 2019.0.1 , no 2019.1.0, no 2019.1.1 or the current version 2019.1.2?

Yes, thank you.  (And thank you to Pendean for genuinely attempting to help)

 

I already have the 2019.1.2 hotfix applied.  I wanted to try the earlier patch since the 2019.1.2 did not solve the draworder issue.  Based on the comments in the thread that were actually helpful, this seemed to have solved the problem for at least one user.  (Thank you for the link to the zip file that just came through as well.)

 

Take a toxic forum, throw in a now-broken link (regardless of the relatively easy availability of a more recent patch) and I call that a ****show.  

 

My next step is an upgrade to 2022, so none of this will matter.  Thanks anyway.

2019.1.2 includes this hotfix, 

you are fighting with another problem.

Perhaps a Draworder bug, but not the bug which is solved by this hotfix.

 

You should start your own thread and share a sample dwg, screenshots,screencasts,explainations.

 

Perhaps you handle with images and your hardware acceleration is turned off,

Or you are talking about objects in Layout and your pagesetup is wrong.

Nobody on our side  can say it is a bug, without to know the details of your issue.
