I want to use Xrefs in a complex scene. I hold a master file and reference it to different other scenes.
But when opening such a scene the Xref can't be reloaded because the attributes are greyed out.

I don't know if this is related to Octane plugin. Does anyone else having similar problems with Xrefs?

Thanks

Ron

No - not this time - but I didn't have problems with Xrefs in pre-OR-plugin-times.

Interesting!
Need to dig deeper into this - maybe something is wrong with file paths.
