Template Not Found in Library / Template Drop in Corridor Objects

I kind of have a multiple questions regarding Template drops and libraries

1. When synchronizing the template library to the corridor I get the error

Even though it is definitely in there.

 

Then within in the Corridor Objects Template Drops it is red (assuming red means not found and blue means updated??).  And when I try to re-path with "..." the template is already selected.

What is going on and is there a way to prevent this from happening as it seems  to do this often

  • I actually dealt with this VERY frequently on my last job. It was very annoying. I noticed the error starting to arise once I started copying the itl and model files locally and then pasting back to a shared network. When trying to re-process, I would get this error. It was completely bugged. It actually happened to my surface templates as well, but without the same error message.

    The quick fix I found was this:

    • Lock the corridor
    • Delete all template drops
    • Unlock the corridor & reprocess
      • You will keep all point controls and external references this way but it'll force process a blank corridor, removing the error.
    • Redrop the template in the same ranges you previously had. 
    • You should no longer get the error moving forward unless you do a lot of pasting back and forth local/network.

    If you are a modeler who uses a lot of template drops versus one "God-Template" then this fix may not be for you. But I didn't find any other solutions for it. As you stated, re-selecting the template from library does NOTHING to fix it like it did in SS10. If you continue to have issues, please let me know. This was a persistent error I ran into, especially after the 10.10 update. 

  • Thank you for your response.  If it does continue to happen I will definitely try this.  Unfortunately this is a 10 mile long design that does have a good bit of template drops right now so I will keep this information in mind.
