I understand a little padlock symbol on a sheet in the browser means that sheet is locked, but what does a little question mark mean?
Anyone?
Right Click tells me nothing.

Hi Kstump, (sorry I don't know your real name)

Please note that I moved your thread to this forum as I believe it will be better suited here.

Question marks in ADT usually mean missing information from a field. How ever I'm not sure what one would mean in the sheet set manager. Is this the "Browser" you are asking about. ADT has several "Browers" at your finger tips. You have a sheet set manager, the project Navigator (PN) and the Project Browser. Can you please let us know where you are seeing question marks?
Thanks

Here is a screen shot of MY issue, I presume is the same as kstump's. It doesn't seem to cause me any problems, but I suspect there has been a change in a path or version of AutoCAD or something. I can still open drawings no problem, but I'd rather not have it confusing people.

I'm just grabbing at staws here, but right click on a sheet and go to properties. See it the Expected Layout path and the Found Layout path match.

Also, I noticed your sheet sets look a bit different from mine in that mine show the sheet name and number like yours, but I can also expand that to show a list of all the model space views that make up the sheet. I wonder why yours is different?

I get question marks if I rename a file or move it out of project navigator. I don't know if this helps, but I usually open up those files and delete them from PN and then save the opened files to PN again. The missing folder name may need to be done similarly - delete and redo it before the other files. I hope this helps . . .

Yup I think the problem is the expected layout location. Some people here will re-path their drives and then forget that they 've done so, when they create a sheet set. Is there a way to change that expected path (that I haven't found)?
Again, it doesn't cause Acad to get confused, but I find the question marks distracting.
