How many times have you tried to open a drawing, only to be stopped short by a dialog like this one: It indicates that there’s a font or shape (SHX) file used by the drawing that AutoCAD LT can’t find. (The missing SHX file looks a little different, with a “browse” option to let you navigate to the file if you have it.) You can click Cancel (or OK, if you have a replacement font or file), but then you might get another warning for the next missing file…and another for the one after that…sometimes it feels like you’re clicking Cancel forever. Fortunately, AutoCAD LT 2011 puts an end to the endless clicking. The first time you open a drawing that references missing SHX files, you’ll see this instead: This dialog gives you a choice between specifying a replacement for each missing file (the way it worked before), or just ignoring the problem and opening the drawing. Even better, there’s a check box at the bottom to remember your current choice, so if you select Ignore and check the box, you’ll never be prompted again. Admittedly, “ignoring” the problem doesn’t make it go away. You still get a notification in the text window about the missing files, and you still have to track them down (which probably means a phone call to whoever sent you the drawing) in order for the file to display correctly. But if you’re opening up a whole bunch of drawings at once, which each have a whole bunch of missing files, won’t it be nice to skip all the *Cancel* *Cancel* *Cancel* clicks?Go to the original post...
