Message
Template Sheet is corrupted.
Severity
Fatal.
Detailed Description
A Drawing Component has a corrupted template. As defined by the Drawings Data Model, the Drawings Volume component must have a template. A template usually has one or more Smart Frames that contain the graphics to be created on an update operation. These Smart Frames are linked indirectly to Drawing View objects, which store all the information of the Smart Frames (view definition). The link between the Smart Frames and the drawing view has been lost. This means that the Drawings application cannot regenerate the drawings on an update operation because necessary information is missing.
Possible Cause
A workflow that causes this problem has not been identified yet.
Possible Impacts
After the template sheet is corrupted, it becomes unusable:
-
A volume cannot be associated to the corrupted component. This means that a new drawing cannot be created.
-
Existing drawings under this volume component will not produce the correct results on an update operation.
-
Copies of the corrupted template will be corrupted too.
What You Should Do
To fix the problem, follow the steps below:
-
Identify the volume component with the problem.
-
On the component, perform the Edit Template operation. This will display the document in the Drawings Editor.
-
Delete any existing Smart Frames in the document.
-
Save and exit the Drawings Editor.
-
On the component, perform the Edit Template operation again.
-
Place view(s) with the appropriate information.
-
Save and exit the Drawings Editor.
These steps eliminate the problem. You can now update drawings, copy and paste, create drawings, and so forth.
