Levels greyed out

(1/2) > >>

PHX cadie:
Ok have to get off the plot stamp thing thing, gatta emergency:

With certain files on my original CPU the levels from the reference files are greyed out (subdued) and impossible to change the color/symbology. Yet when another person from a different office would open the same file, no problem. When they open files a dialog box would open and they would open with the company workspace. So I traded CPU's and I would get the same dialog box, problem solved........till we get new CPU's  :cry:

What would cause the levels of a reference file to be subdued in the level manager?   
(these are the levels of a reference file to a sheet file, (model) then is self ref'd into layout)

Thx's!

the first thought I have might be user permissions....
or something to do with your LVL Library file/and or location of it
where in the file structure is Projectwise handling user or group login?

PHX cadie:
I do not know, but when I first noticed this, it's on a file from our server not on PW. Then I opened a file on PW, that I knew didn't have any problems and its the same, (levels being subdued).
I should mention in model the levels are not grey'd out only  from layout.

this page seems to indicate that is 'normal' behavior....http://communities.bentley.com/forums/thread/88342.aspx

mjfarrell:
it is also suggested that this command will enable you to have control back...
