Invariably there are always qwirks that pop up when you install the "latest and greatest". Our typical office procedure is to lock the door for 1-3 days while the staff installs, tweaks, and troubleshoots the new software.
This year I came up with the brilliant idea of having everyone else keep working whilst I go through the install on my own, working out all of the bugs so that everyone else can have a smooth transition.
Not a bad idea for productivity, but I'm missing the combined brain power.
That, and operating in my belief that I'm not alone in the universe, I thought it a great idea to start a thread where those of us in the same boat can post our issues and the solutions we've found.
Two (of the several) issues that I've still not resolved are:
1. Whenever I select "too many objects" and use CREATEHLR, CAD crashes. I've repaired the install, tried it from Model Space and other tabs, and still can't figure out why.
2. I saw the "See What You've Been Missing" webcast that Lynn Allen did (it's pretty good - if you havent' seen it, click here -> http://usa.autodesk.com/adsk/servlet...&siteID=123112) and she had several Menu Tabs that I just can't get loaded (like "Layout" and "Output"). No idea where they are, and I'm pretty sure I've got all the menus loaded.
One thing I did solve is that my "Express" menu wasn't coming up. The solution was to uninstall and reinstall the ACETMAIN menu using MENULOAD.
Feel free to comment away!
We're all in this together, after all.
