    Default Manage Xrefs

    Hi everyone,

    Hope your holidays are going great...

    *****
    I'm a little over the manage xrefs notice...
    (Reload DWG xrefs)

    Ya, I know the xrefs change and yes I want the update right now...!!!

    I came here because maybe (I hope) some one has the code to make this automatic and
    stop having the little Cartoon Cloud from coming up...

    I have a quick key which update all xrefs but that little Cartoon Cloud still is there...

    I believe it is a time issue between computers. I could be wrong on that.
    If you have a technical question, please find the appropriate forum and ask it there.
    You will get a quicker response from your fellow AUGI members than if you sent it to me via a PM or email.

    Sorry Opie,

    I found my answer...

    (setenv "XNOTIFYTIME" "0")

    I found it in help...
    Code:
    "Controls the notification for updated or missing xrefs.
    
    0
     Disables xref notification
     
    1
     Enables xref notification. Notifies you that xrefs are attached to the current drawing by displaying the xref icon in the lower-right corner of the application window (the notification area of the status bar tray). When you open a drawing, alerts you to missing xrefs by displaying the xref icon with a yellow alert symbol (!).
     
    2
     Enables xref notification and balloon messages. Displays the xref icon as in 1 above. Also displays balloon messages in the same area when xrefs are modified. The number of minutes between checking for modified xrefs is controlled by the system registry variable XNOTIFYTIME.


    *****
    I will not add it to my AcadDoc.lsp

    Others may need to see this to insure their are updated...

    Mmmmm....

    But I maybe could create something that updates without
    they needing to do anything...

    Mmmmm... Maybe NOT...



    Mmmmm again...
    Life went on before we had this before...

    Sorry again,

    I should of said...

    XREFNOTIFY

    then use 0

    I'm happy again...



    Last Time... Really...!!!

    I went with XREFNOTIFY 1
    That way I get a small notice without the cartoon cloud...
    This maybe the best of both worlds...

    You all have a great holiday



    CadDog OUT...!!!

    Thanks for keeping us informed in your little private discussion

    You're about 5 years away from pushing a shopping cart down the sidewalk full of cans while talking to yourself....

    Seriously though, thanks for the update, it's valuable info.
