how to get rid off SHX warnings in drawings

[rcaspersPUZBW]

I have some drawings who permanent say SHX not found.

I know its a (line) style, not been found, but how can i remove the shx missing objects

Hi,

Add the shx to your system

or

Change the object or layer linetype

or

not the best choice, disable the message (it's offered, or?)

HI sebastian, thank you for your comment

Ignoring the messages is not the choice i wanna make. there's no tool or command to erase the object containing the SHX ?

Greetings, Ronald

Hi,

In my opinion, that would be the most senseless approach,
why delete circles, lines and blocks?
That's why I suggested better alternatives,
although deactivation is certainly not the best.

Here, to find the linetypes in question.
Please reopen your file, load the code, run LTLIST,
press [F2] right click - copy protocoll.
Share [ctrl]+[v] in your reply

QSELECT or FILTER or STANDARDS will help to change ltypes.
In AutoCADs PURGE dialog, switch to non-purgable items,
you can see where a linetype is used.

(defun c:LTList (/ LT STYLE)
  (setq LT (tblnext "LTYPE" T))
  (while LT
    (terpri)
    (foreach ep (entget(tblobjname "LTYPE" (cdr(assoc 2 LT))))
      (cond
        ((= 2 (car ep))
         (terpri)(princ (cdr ep)))
        ((= 340 (car ep))
         (setq style (entget(cdr ep)))
         (princ (strcat "\n -->" (if (= "" (cdr(assoc 2 style))) "(unnamed)" (cdr(assoc 2 style))) "/" (cdr(assoc 3 style))))
         (if (and
               (not(wcmatch (strcase(cdr(assoc 3 style))) "*.TTF"))
               (not(findfile(strcat (cdr(assoc 3 style)) (if (wcmatch (strcase(cdr(assoc 3 style))) "*.SHX") "" ".shx"))))
             )
             (princ " (missing!!!)")
         ))
      )
    )
    (setq LT (tblnext "LTYPE"))
  )
 (princ)
)

You need to ask for those SHX 'shape' from the files creator for them. Sorry, there is no other miracle fix that is 100% foolproof. You could risk hunting for them on the WEB, or actually list them for others to try and help by sharing, but you chose to not go that far yet.

Not liking the truthful replies is totally fine, but it does not change the facts sadly.

How would you like to proceed?
