Hello Everyone -
I've established a Design Library that has been actively used by my office.
We recently implemented PDM, and although we had begun saving several projects in the vault, we'd kept templates/design library/etc. on our One Drive server. Now, I've started to slowly move these items into the vault, and have been troubleshooting them on my own system prior to changing file locations for the other users.
I found out today that I am unable to save anything into the Design Library. I've double checked my System Settings/File Locations - and it's routed to the correct folder.. However, when I go to add something new to the library, my "Design Library Folders" box comes up completely blank. I'm unable to route to a specific file location, or even paste the location address into the box.
What's more confusing is that I'm able to access the design library through it's normal location on the "SolidWorks Resources" Pane. All of the individual notes and components work correctly, they just have the "this file is read only" dialog box popping up each time they're dragged into a drawing/model.
I am also unable to edit the existent components and re-save them, even though I've checked their properties-> attributes and checked "read only". I'm also signed in as Admin.. so I'm not really grasping what's going on here.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Hi,
For a start there are several questions:
1) PDM Standart / Professional?
2) For Librariy files separate Workflow is used?
3) Caching of the Librariy folder at an input is set?
4) The Librariy folder is added to Refererences (in PDM Administration)?
5) Folder / vault is added to antivirus exceptions?
6) On other computers (or under other users) too most?
7) The user does not consist in several groups?
8) Settings and the rights at the user correct?
