Hi guys!

We also moved from 2006 to 2007 and had the same exact issue.
We found a solution though. It wont work as before with default settings. You have to create a new preset under File Link Manager/Presets and use it every time when linking a dwg file.
Check out the attached jpg image for the exact settings you should use in that newly created preset.
So..while importing dwg just pick that preset from dropdown list and it should work.. it sure does for us =)

Take care and let me know if it solved your problems.

micha,

i was having the exact same problem. i made the preset as described,
Quote:
detached the file, then reattached it with the preset. no more problem!
Quote:
previously i had just been trying to change the reload options, but that was getting me nowhere. i can't identify the exact root of the problem without more testing, so i'll suggest that you try to detach and then reattach the file.

best,
andrew
