It's independent of a file. I start with an empty file and click on the Technic
section of the parts tree and get a load of warnings about 48\peghole.dat and a
number of other files that are missing.
At the same time there is a big red X in the place where after clicking through
all the messages part 30632 (Technic 6x4x3 grille with two pins and two pin
holes) appears.
It also happens wheen for example I go to Other Parts > Other, so it isn't a
sepecific part related issue either.
I don't care much about this part, but it's the origin of the problem that
worries me. As I said befor, if I dump the unofficial files in the official
folders I get no warnings, so the problem is not related to parts that are
missing, but to the fact that for some reason MLCad doesn't find them even
though they appear to be in the correct location.
