In the example above, the installer will be extracted in C:Autodesk. For example, for DWGTrueView 2022 this would be: -suppresslaunch -d 'C:Autodesk'. Tip: Use the eTransmit utility to avoid this kind of problem in the future. Extract the installation package using the below command in Command Prompt. The routine does not delete shapes displayed in the drawing. Note: This routine only deletes shapes in the drawing that reference unavailable shape files. The routine runs and returns the following information on the command line: Open the problem drawing, and use the APPLOAD command to load the delshape.lsp routine.Save the text file as delshape.lsp, and exit the text editor.For a given abstract pathname f it is guaranteed that new File( f.toURI()).equals( f. The exact form of a file: URI is system-dependent, hence the transformation performed by this constructor is also system-dependent.

(if (or (= (ssmemb entity shapes_name) nil)) Creates a new File instance by converting the given file: URI into an abstract pathname. (while (and (< n nshapes) (/= shapes nil) (/= shapes_name nil)) (if (and (= shapes_name nil) (/= shapes nil)) (setq shapes_name (ssget 'X' (list (cons 0 'SHAPE') (cons 2 '*')))) load this file and run the new command DELSHAPE This routine deletes all shapes in the drawing

Copy and paste the following AutoLISP code into the text file created in the previous step.Use a text editor (for example, Microsoft® Notepad) to create a new text file.You can then load the drawing without error.

Purge references to unavailable shape files.

Erase shape objects that reference unavailable shape files.

The solution provides an AutoLISP® routine that you can use to This solution is for situations where you are unable to obtain the missing shape files, and you know you can remove them without affecting the validity of the drawing. Do not use this solution unless you are sure you can remove the missing shape objects without affecting the validity of the drawing. Warning: This solution permanently and irreversibly removes missing shape objects from the drawing. With those items purged from the drawing, you'll be able to also purge the reference to the missing SHX file.Īlternately, the method described below can be used: Once found, change linetype assignments and/or remove objects that use the missing SHX file. Go through the drawing and determine which objects or linetypes refer to the missing SHX file.
