Hi all, One of the projects we are working on refuses to display the option box asking if you would like to overwrite the existing element with the one you are loading into your project. As a result we cannot update any model parts within the project. What may be causing this? cadjockey

Hi all, I am hoping someone has a solution to my problem. It seems the challenge I have described above is only present in one particular project. All other projects will update familes brought into them without a problem. The problem child project simply will not give me the option to overwrite an existing family and as such does not update the family element. Is it a preference setting or something like that that needs to be switched on/off? I have tried loading the family from the project via 'File/Load from family' and also direct from the family using the 'Load into project' facility. No joy! cadjockey
