All Connection Line Icons are Displayed in Red Color in HyDraw CAD Ribbon Menu

All Connection Line Icons are Displayed in Red Color in HyDraw CAD Ribbon Menu

Issue:
In some cases, all connection line command icons in HyDraw CAD appear in red instead of their expected distinct colors. This can make it difficult to distinguish between different connection types while selecting or inserting connection lines.

Cause:
This issue is typically caused by a corrupted or incorrectly configured ConnectionLineProperty.xml file, which controls the display properties of connection lines.

Solution:
To resolve this issue, replace the existing configuration file with the default version:
  1. Close HyDraw CAD.
  2. Navigate to the following setup location:
    C:\VEST\HyDraw-CAD-2026.0.0.20-R-EN\x64\HyDraw\PF\Root\UserDataCache\HyDrawSettings\
  3. Locate the file:
    ConnectionLineProperty.xml
  4. Copy this file from the setup location.
  5. Replace the existing file in the user directory C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Roaming\VEST\HyDraw CAD 2026\R2026\enu\HyDrawSettings\ with this file. 
  6. Restart HyDraw CAD and verify that the icons are displayed correctly.
