  Re: Missing primitives after part update.
 
(...) I'm not exactly sure how to make sure the parts are in the correct directories. As for the "Scan Parts" command I have run that multiple times.What happens is that MLCAD will say a file can not be found but when I search the file is indeed in (...)

If you want it to find parts in the Models directory, the MLCad.ini in the following zip will probably make that work: (URL) the MLCad.ini file from the zip into your main MLCad directory (in Program Files by default).
