Saving Automatically, but not
Recently my drawings are saving changes when I close a drawing without any prompt.I can't say that they're all doing this.Sometimes I open a drawing and make layer control changes or view changes that I don't want to save, but when I open the drawing the next time, all of those changes are retained.-Ben Sorry for my delayed response. I'm a student and this semester I only work half days.
eldon: Nope. Expert is set to 0 - Issues all prompts normally. I have isolated the problem.It only occurs when the CAELINK tabs arx is loaded.
StykFace, if you see this post, do you have any similar issue?I'm using the same program.
http://www.cadtutor.net/forum/showthread.php?t=30951&highlight=acadxtabs When you save the changes, AUTOCAD creates a .BAK file automatically, and when you open the .BAK file, all of those changes are not retained.
Actually, what happens is...
When you QSAVE, the drawing in the editor is saved to a temporary file. Then the current .DWG file is renamed to .BAK. Then the temporary file is renamed to .DWG.
If you QSAVE twice in a row, then the BAK is equal to the .DWG. Either way, this problem was fixed by removing the 'tabs' program.The DBMOD variable was being changed. i have a user that wants this to happen anyways.he says he had it setup at his previous employment.That it did not prompt him to save when closing.Any suggestions?i went to the expert variable, but doesn't that just shut off prompts such as layers, blocks and regen?
You want it to save all open drawings automatically when AutoCAD is closed?
You could get pretty close by using an application event (check out the "BeginQuit" event) - I don't know if this event fires when the "X" in the upper right corner is used or if Atl+F4 is used to close AutoCAD...?
