Aftertouch Posted June 26 Share Posted June 26 Hi All, in the Options => tab 'Files' the DGN Mapping Setups Location' is present. But on installation, its set to the wrong location, seems like an error in 2024. Nog i want to change the variable using LISP, so i can push this setting so all our 400 users. But.... i cannot find any documentation about this specific path-location.. I found a variable DGNMAPPINGPATH, wich is ReadOnly. I can change the Register-key, but... that doesnt seem to be te right way, since all other locations CAN be changed quite easy.. What am i missing here?

SLW210 Posted June 26 Share Posted June 26 What location is it set for? Mine is default to C:\USERS\*****\Appdata\Roaming\Autodesk\AutoCAD 2024\R24.3\enu\support Pretty sure you need to modify with the Registry if you want to bypass the OPTIONS method.

Aftertouch Posted June 26 Author Share Posted June 26 @SLW210 Thats the default value, wich is wrong. The DGN Seed files are stored in: C:\USERS\*****\Appdata\Roaming\Autodesk\AutoCAD 2024\R24.3\enu\templates Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLW210 Posted June 26 Share Posted June 26 I do not have a templates folder, must only happen when creating the .ini files. I haven't messed with DGN since getting 2024 apparently, I did restore to defaults a couple of months ago as well. That explains why the default is wrong. Does yours have the template folder already?

Aftertouch Posted June 26 Author Share Posted June 26 @SLW210 Smal correction: C:\USERS\*****\Appdata\Roaming\Autodesk\AutoCAD 2024\R24.3\enu\template is the correct folder. This is a default AutoDesk folder, everybody has in there installation. This is where all regular templates are stored, both DWT and now also DGN seed files.

SLW210 Posted June 26 Share Posted June 26 C:\Users\**********\AppData\Roaming\Autodesk\AutoCAD 2024\R24.3\enu on my computer has no template folder. Mine is at C:\Users\*********\AppData\Local\Autodesk\AutoCAD 2024\R24.3\enu\Template Either way, it seems the path is incorrect, maybe contact Autodesk for a fix would be the best route to take.

SLW210 Posted June 26 Share Posted June 26 As far as I know, the DGNMAPPINGPATH is for the .ini files. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
