CADLock allows me to open an encrypted drawing file and make modifications, but won let me save it. Why not?

0

It is possible (and in some cases desirable) to allow modifications of a drawing but to disallow database output. This is ultimately the decision of the owner of the drawing at the time the encrypted drawing file is created. Q: I made some changes to a drawing and forgot to save to an unsecured drawing (*.dwg) prior to saving it as a Locked file (*.dwx). Now CADLock won’t let me save my modifications to a *.dwg file. What do I do? A: In this case do not exit the drawing, but immediately issue the CLRESET command and then save as .dwg.
