How do I stop AutoCAD fields in my title block from conflicting with CADS RC/RebarCAD functionality?

 9 May 2007
If you use AutoCAD fields in your title block these have been proven to conflict with
CADS RC/RebarCAD.

To stop this conflict, set the AutoCAD system variable called fieldeval to 0, then this will immediately stop the fields from automatically updating, and therefore remove any problems related to RC.

To change variable:

  • Type fieldeval at the AutoCAD command line and press enter.
  • When prompted to enter the new value type 0 and press enter.

You can manually refresh any fields by using the AutoCAD updatefield command.

To update fields:

  • Type updatefield at the AutoCAD command line and press enter.
  • Pick the fields you wish to update and then press enter.
