Hi all,
At the beginning, I made a new palette for my dynamic block in a drawing. All blocks source file were from that drawing. Now I want all those source file (blocks) from new location (folder). Do I have to recreate a new palette?
Any advise?

depending on the quantity of blocks in the palette, you could copy/paste the path into the 'Source File' entry in the TP button's properties box. that way you will only have one thing to update instead of a possible greater number of re-mods for starting over with each button.

In design center you can also browse to the folder and create a tool palette directly from the root folder (right click on the folder...create new palette)

or if they are from the same file and you have some additional changes to the insertion properties.......ctrl L-click first item...shift L-click last item...right click... properties..browse for new souce file
