REFSET
Adds or removes objects from a working set during in-place editing of a
reference, either an xref or a block definition.
Resolve Referenced Drawing Errors
If a referenced drawing cannot be loaded when you open a drawing, an error
message is displayed.
Resolve Missing External References
If a referenced drawing cannot be located when you open a drawing, an error
message is displayed. There are several options available to you if this occurs.
The program stores the path of the drawing that is used to create the referenced
drawing. Each time you load or plot the drawing or use the xref Reload option
in the External References palette to update the xref, the program checks this
path to determine the name and location of the referenced drawing file. If
the name or location of the drawing file has changed, the program cannot
reload the xref.
If the program cannot load an xref when it is loading your drawing, it displays
an error message. In this example, the program can't find the xref HOUSE:
"\acadlt\dwgs\house.dwg": Can't open file
** Error resolving Xref HOUSE.
For each insertion of the referenced drawing, the program displays text (at
the location, scale, and rotation angle of the original reference) that contains
the path of the missing xref. You can use the XREF Path option to update or
correct the path.
Along with error messages being displayed at the Command window, a task
dialog box might be displayed which allows you to ignore all missing reference
files or update their locations. You can use the External References paletteto
update the locations of the unresolved references.
One way to avoid these errors is to be sure that when you give other people
files that have xrefs attached, you also give them all the referenced files.
