Only Able to Select the Preference Set "Default"

Issue

You're only able to select the Preference Set named Default. Even if you attempt to select another one, your project will only accept Default as the active Preference Set.

 

Default Preference Set shown in Preferences screen

 

 

Cause

This issue is the result of a quirk in some Cloud Data installations of our software.

 

 

Solution

Use our Restore feature to restore either the Imperial or Metric Preference Set from the folder LandFX\Tutorials.

 

 

Open our Project List tool from the F/X Admin ribbon.

 

F/X Admin ribbon, Project List button

 

 

In the Land F/X Projects dialog box, click Restore.

 

Land F/X Projects dialog box, Restore button

 

 

In the Restore Project dialog box, click Import.

 

Restore Project dialog box, Import button

 

 

In the Select LFX File to Import dialog box, navigate to and open the folder LandFX/Tutorial.

 

Browsing to the folder LandFX/Tutorial in the Select LFX File to Import dialog box

 

 

The Tutorial folder will contain two Preference Sets: Imperial.lfx and Metric.lfx. Select the one that applies to the measurement system you use when drafting. Then click Open.

 

Selecting a Preference Set in the Tutorial folder

 

 

 

Open the General Preferences, and select either the Imperial or Metric Preference Set from the menu.

 

General Preferences screen, selecting a Preference Set

 

Your projects should now accept the Preference Set you selected.

You can also create a new Preference Set at this point, basing it on the one you've set as active.
