Viewbase Problem

Anonymous
Not applicable

Has anyone had this problem yet? I've drawn a model in Autocad 2018, and then when I went to use Viewbase, it gave me this error: Unable to perform the requested action. This drawing was last edited with model documentation in a newer version of AutoCAD.

 

However, there is no newer version of Autocad.

Hi,

 

>> This drawing was last edited with model documentation in a newer version of AutoCAD

Was that drawing created on your system or on another workstation?

 

And to verify the exact version: start command _ABOUT and compare the release info with that one (my AutoCAD was able to handle _VIEWBASE correctly).

The drawing was created on my work station, I haven't tried opening it on another computer yet.

Hi,

 

as you can see your AutoCAD is not up-to-date.

Let Autodesk Desktop App update your AutoCAD and then try it again.

This did seem to work, and I am updating AutoCAD as well. As well as cleaning out temporary files, as per a suggestion from Autodesk.
