1.5. Vehicle Wrap items not showing up in the lists.

Q:  I just did an update of the software and now the Vehicle Wrap items (vehicles, prep solution, adhesive) are not showing up in the list. 

 

A:  We are aware of this issue, and are working to fix it for the next build of the software.  In the meantime we do have a solution to fix the issue immediately.  Attached to this article is the database file for all of the Vehicle Wraps items.  If you have a single EstiMate station you will want to save this file to that computer.  If you have more then one EstiMate station and use the Multi-User Server you will want to save this file to the computer that the Multi-User Server is installed on.

 

1.  Save the file attached to this article to the desktop of the computer that is running EstiMate (if you only have the one station), or the computer running the Multi-User Server (if you have 2 or more copies of EstiMate networked together by the Multi-User Server).

2.  Close any open copies of EstiMate, and stop the Multi-User Server.

3.  Right click on the zip file (Custom.zip), and select "Extract All".

4.  When the "Extraction Wizard" comes up click the "Next" button.

5.  On the next screen it asks where you would like to extract the file.  There is a hidden folder in the path to the EstiMate Data folder so you will not be able to browse there (unless you have "Show hidden files" turned on). 

Instead you can copy this path  C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\EstiMate\Data  and past it into that field.  (This is if you only have one copy of EstiMate).

If you are using the Multi-User Server then you will want to copy this path and paste it into the field in the Extraction Wizard:

C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\EstiMate\Multi-User Data

If your data folder is located somewhere other then one of these default locations you will need to know where that is and either browse to that location or enter the path to it into the filed in the Extraction Wizard.

6.  Click the "Next" button.

7.  You will get two prompts - 1 telling you the file already exists - just click "Yes" to replace it, and second telling you it's a Read Only file - just click "Yes" there too.

8.  Back on the Extraction Wizard window uncheck the "Show extracted files" check-box, and click the "Finish" button.

9.  Start the Multi-User Server again, and then open EstiMate.  All of the vehicles, prep solutions, and adhesives should now be in their respective lists, and available for you to select from in the Vehicle Wraps plugin.
