Vault – ECO dwf mark-up toolbar missing

By Kim Hyde

Audit trails for many disciplines are fast becoming a `must have’ for project management records, and for those who have not yet adopted change management with Autodesk Vault Professional I strongly recommend that you take a look.  Vault Professional offers a best-in-class solution to provide a permanent record from request through to the sign-off of all associated data.

An important feature for Change Requests are to provide red-line mark-ups for drawings and documentation using the embedded Autodesk Design Review, however if you discover when using this feature the mark-up tollbar is missing (see high-lighted toolbar in the image below), you will need to correct this by modifying some registry entries:

Please refer to the following Autodesk link which provides the details to modify the registry entries, but as always, it is recommended to back-up the registry prior to any changes.
