    Angry More Tool Palette Problems

    Today our drafters reported to me that some new (custom)palettes came in when they started AutoCAD and some duplicate palettes were also there. Something occurred to me. I haven't had problems with tool palettes for weeks. Yesterday, I changed the properties on a few palette items I came across. Basically, changing the "Explode" property to "Yes".

    So is this the source of my problem? We have had these same strange problems in the past. If modifying them is indeed causing these problems, what should I do differently in the future.

    Default Re: More Tool Palette Problems

    Sometimes when I modify palettes (ours are all networked), the changes muck up the other drafters palettes. I simply update export a new company profile, have them load it, and that has taken care of any issues I may have. Usually it's new buttons that mess things up though, not revisions to existing ones.

    Does not seem to be enough background information for us to help you.... BUT there are some things you can make sure to do to have things stay they way you want them to... keeping the TP files on a server and have ONE person with write permissions to it only.
