[solved] Library items random corruption on placement

Post by andyb » Fri Aug 17, 2018 3:46 am

Hi.
Am using
Version: 3.21.2.0 (3.21.2) in Windows 10 Pro.

I have created library items from an AutoCad file.
When I use these items on a new drawing, I get random corruptions of the placed item - in this example, I placed the PC item first then the PLC item which was corrupted.
Attachment T3 is as it should be.
Attachment T4 shows the corruption.
Libraries attached.

Andy

Hi,

the Blockname *U0 is used twice for different items (Rectangle and PC).
If you insert a Library Item witch contains the same block name but different contend and the option is chosen to overwrite Blocks then the already inserted Blocks (Rectangle) are replaced by the new Block (PC).
In this case 10 rectangle are replaced by 10 PC's.
Work smart, not hard: QCad Pro
Win10/64, QcadPro, QcadCam version: Current.
If a thread is considered as "solved" please change the title of the first post to "[solved] Title..."
