WHats even worse now is i am trying this on my system at home and everytime I try to save as DWG or DXF, my system crashes "program terminated" error ?? JAKE I think Im in big trouble here :(
I took an old print and cleaned it out and used it as my new template. It seems to work fine now. I have had a problem a few times in the last couple of years with Templates becoming corrupt. Dont know why. Well, at least it works for tonight, :) Jake Barron
I dont recall if it was geometry or dimensions that was once "lost" i dwg. But anyway the reason was that the SW color was not entirely black but so close that you would not see it in SW. In Acad (with black background) the entity was invisible. Only BLACK will translate to contrast color. A color-setup in SW resolved the problem.
