    Posted: 02.Nov.2007 at 08:07
I cant edit existing external reference in AutoCad 2008 or LT 2008.
If i insert a new xref it is not a problem, but if i want to change a path or make a xref  full path or relative path i cant find the way.
 
Insert xref i use. Wrong way? Anather way?
In earlyier versions of autocad i use xref control to to this type of change. In 2002 i can change patc etc under Insert Xref.
 
Please help me!

You can change paths, xref name, attach/overlay etc. in the External references pallete (XREF command) - in the Details panel.
To change absolute/relative paths you can use e.g. the REFman tool.

You can either edit the paths individually in the Xref palette (command: XREF, the Details panel on the bottom - click on the "..." browse button) or through the RefMan tool installed with AutoCAD.
