Hello,

I just bought an upgrade ver. 14 week ago from ver. 11.1. Looks fine that most of the bugs i encountered from the previous ver. 11.1 has gone. Now, theres 1 bug that is so strange and not present from the previous versions. The external Reference, when you edit the exref in place or from its original file, the host dwg or current dwg doesnt update when you click the reload that pops up on it. Even you click it again to reload still not updating. Its a serious bug coz you have to close it and open it just to reload which is time consuming. Any thoughts or solution for this? Thank You.

I noticed when you edit in place everything disappears for me. Trouble is I contacted cms with the issue with flatshot and they told me to come to the forum, which if no ones else has that issue then nothing will happen? Seem rather backwards to me.
Anyway, hence the reason I haven't reported it.

I have the same issue. You have to close & re-open the drawing to update the xrefs. This bug needs to be fixed.

It would be nice if I could add more than one xref to my drawing at a time. On other CAD softwares, you can shift+click and add as many xrefs as you like.

I too have the same problem, I trust you have reported the problem?

Hello CMS Intellicad,

REgarding CMS Intellicad PE plus ver. 14Until now we have not recieved any responses from your side. This Exref reloading is a very annoying and dangerous bug, you may submit a drawings to your client with mistakes out of this due to non-reloading of the exref backround unless you close it and open in which is time consuming. When will be the patches/fix come?

Thanks for the report.
We're reviewing it and we'll provide a feedback as soon as possible.

Just an update:
I reported the issue (via the Help dropdown & send feedback)
I have this morning recieved notification from INTELLICAD.ORG

"I was able to reproduce this issue and reported a bug to be fixed. "

Just an update:

I have this morning recieved notification from INTELLICAD.ORG

I’m pleased to inform you that this issue has been resolved and merged into IntelliCAD 14.0.

This will take a bit of time for CMS to update their software, but at least it has been fixed

It has been fixed? Any patches from their website? I saw in the donwload, its still the version 14.0 (no decimal)).

Has anyone of you encountered by copying an object, text or small detail inside the drawing that you cannot copy because it jumps back to its location. You have to close and open the file to get rid of the bug. Its annoying and time consuming. I had it in ver. 11.1 until now they still have in ver. 14. I hope they fix it too as part of ver. 14 overhaul bug fix.

Hi,
