Hey Brandon. Another great helpful tip. A reminder to find and organize all of my ctb files into one location. I noticed within your plot styles you had screening at various percentages. I'd like to learn how to use and when it can be helpful. Cheers.

Thanks Gerry!
Definitely, always a good idea to keep our .ctbs organized and in a central location, definitely eliminates issues in the long run.
I don't tend to the screening option much but I'll see about doin a video or post on them in the future.
Thanks again and have a good one!
Cheers

I JUST WANT TO HUG YOU RN ! thank you so much, it's been a month am trying to fix this

[@zappastache9093]

I added the path and the CTB files are in that path (folder) but they still do not show up in Autocad. Any ideas?

[@martha2488]

Same here, where you able to fix it? I'm stuck

[@zorngaming1569]

Your an AutoCAD wizard!

[@peterhne3664]

Hey Brandon, your tutorial is so helpful, you really helped me fixed my missing ctb files. BRAVO.

[@nickfugh3876]

Hey Brandon, thank you for the video. Is it necessary to use AIA Standard.CTB file if I create CAD files that need to be shared with engineers? They may use different line weights.

Hi there I have a problem where my cbt appears in a file but not in another even after adding the path. Another weird issue is the cbt randomly goes missing in the first file that I was using and after picking another it re-appears. I added the cbt path in the new file but still doesn't appear as an option in my plotstyle. Edit: the cbt now appears in the file but whenever I try to use it the program automatically goes back to monochromatic

[@nidhinjoy4863]

I ALSO HAVE THIS PROBLEM

[@francia6263]

Thanks, I'll gonna try this and see if this one is working on my plot style.

[@ARMANRAMEZANNEJAD-h2z]

Hi, I have done all you said in your video, but whenever I plot them the texts are going out and not in the format they should be , and everything come in color . Is this normal? Thanks

[@annesnursoviyanti8834]

Thank you, your tutorial always helpful 👍

[@jorgelinapeccia9314]

I have a Ctb that was sent, but I only can browse copy and paste the link where reside the Cbt. Copy and paste the file didn't work. When I want to plot said Unreconciled new layers exist in the drawing. It is a CAD 2004 to a 2022

[@hussainismail5770]

thank you, that was very helpful

[@Cadintentions]

Not a problem, happy to help!

[@amankhattak9350]

for what purpose these cbt files should be added??

[@juliesmith7993]

Once again- quick and helpful and informative!!! Thx

[@Cadintentions]

Thanks! Happy to have helped
Cheers

[@hskrgrad]

Any idea why when I open someone else's file, make some modifications, and try to plot with my plot styles I can't get AutoCAD to find my plot styles? The path ways still show up in my options but they don't show up in the drop down. This has been driving me crazy trying to figure it out.

[@lily2011uk]

Thank you Brandon. Appreciate your video. I did not know this can be resolved via you tube video

[@bme4285]

How do you send your ctb file to another person. I’m guessing just sending them the cad file doesn’t come with the ctb??

[@adelardmedina8097]

Great help Brandon... tnx

Glad it helped Adelard! Thanks for watching and commenting!
