So I'm trying to add my template in to a coworker's. My template is the 2020 and his is the 2024. Steps I've done!

1. Having both open and going to tool space settings, in his drawing I drag point styles, label styles and description keys sets from mine into his.

2.  opening the block command with "I" enter. i made sure my blocks were in his drawing overwriting a few of them.

3.  In my drawing i went to tool space - properties and exported my point groups to a .xml file in his drawing i went to insert-land xml and imported them. 

 

Problems

1. In his tool space- prospector if I right click "Well" - properties the point style went back to basic in the information and overrides tab. As well as the raw description isn't selecting it automatically. Is there a way to export it to keep all that information so I don't have to update each group?

2. Clicking "Found Iron" -properties I switched the style to iron pin in the information and overrides tab and raw description to select anything that has the code ip. Why does it not update the point style when i right lick point groups and click update?

Some issues are circled yellow. They both have the same points imported into them.

I feel like I'm missing a step and am curious what they are.

Thanks for looking at this.

@foste312 is the 2024 beta not released version? This looks like a bug to me.

@DanielLench_ is correct. . .2024 is not a released program as of yet.  If you're working with a beta version of the software then you cannot be discussing anything about it on the forums.  

 

Assuming it's 2023. . .why don't you. . .

  1. begin a new drawing with the 2020 template you have (in 2023)
  2. insert the 2023 file into it
  3. explode the 2023 file
  4. begin working

1. Begin a new drawing using your 2020 template.

2. It's a blank drawing, so use the INSERT command and insert your 2024 drawing.  

3. It's a block at this point so, use the EXPLODE command to explode your file and get all your linework and Civil 3D objects into your drawing.  

4. You can now work.
