    Default Can't Find My XREF

    I looked to see if this was somewhere else in the forums... couldn't quite find what I was looking for.

    So, I xreffed a drawing into a drawing... and uh, I can't find it. The layers are all there, it's listed as there, there is a preview... where is it? The layers are also all on, I've regenned and don't know quite what else to do...? Why is it off in la la land?

    We're on AutoCAD Map 3D 2008.

    check the scale - it may have come in too small, maybe

    Yeah, I'm looking for it, and I'm usually pretty good at spotting tiny dots far away.. but I've still got nothing.

    What I'm trying to do is insert a title block as an xref so that I can change it globally if needed, it also has some attributes that are not attached to the block so that they can be changed on an as needed basis. Could this be causing problems?

    Okay, I seem to have worked something out. Thanks though! I'll probably be on to figure out how to fix it later.

    I see you found a fix, but I what my next question was going to be where are you inserting your title block - MS or PS?
