Topic: Text does not save after vault check-in Posted: 24.Feb.2014 at 20:57 |
Hey guys!! So the guy next to me has a weird problem. He'll update his drawing title only to have it revert back to something else when he checks it out of vault...VERY odd, I saw it happen- it just changes before your eyes as its downloading from vault, and overwrites what he saved it as. So WTF? Lemme try some pics..

Are Xrefs being used?

JC!! Still on here solving the worlds un-known CAD problems! Bravo man!! Ok so no xrefs are being used. its a block created by our company...a title block text entity or 'block reference'. Its the craziest thing I've seen...he changes it, checks it in, checks it back out and as its 'checking out'...that pause before you can work on it? That bastard text changes right before your eyes and defaults to the file name. the way we change the title block is its an enhanced attribute editor...with 'tags', 'prompts' and 'value'. the 'value' secition is what changes on him.. I suspect its some sort of default attribute editor issue....but who knows....its got everybodies panties in a bunch, an its driving him and us crazy...

I can barely solve my own problems let alone those of anyone else. Including yours.
I have no experience using Vault and from what I've read I'm not too sure I'd want to.
Did you check the attribute itself?

OK....so this only happens on this one computer.
Well scratch that idea (re: attribute).
Have you tried stripping out the block, purging the drawing, then inserting a new block?

Not yet. I'm assuming that may help isolate one set of problems from another?

Just did that. apparently vault is pushing back user defined attributes into the drawing title block...why is the question now
