object viewer

[ala.balaportocala256381]

Hello,

I use autocad mep 2013 and when I try to use 'object viewer' there doesn't appear the command in right mousse command (3d object selected). In command line : Command: OBJECTVIEWER
Unknown command "OBJECTVIEWER".
I looked in help and there is write that: '...The Object Viewer can be started from different locations in the software.'.

If I try on different computer (same drawing, mep 2013), I can use object viewer.

Or do you know where is the location on tools pallete ?

Can You help me with this ?
Thank You

Unknown command would indicate a problem within the program (or that someone has undefined the command).

My first suggestion would be to do a 'repair' install on your program.

Do any other MEP commands work? If not, you may have started AutoCAD MEP with an "as AutoCAD" profile, which would not have any of the AutoCAD MEP commands loaded (such as ObjectViewer). If you are not in such a profile, then Melanie's suggestion would be my next step.

Oh, good advice, David, I didn't even think about that... I go back and forth between MEP and Vanilla and sometimes forget which commands (like this one) are not available in vanilla.
