The other layers are coming off the network? If it's been working fine something else has changed by the sounds of it.<br>

<br>
I'm not sure if you are familiar with Dial Before You Dig. When a request is made for information about the underground assets in a particular area, our council is one of the organisations that are asked to respond. That request is emailed to us and contains a .gml file with the specified location details.<br>
<br>
In order to speed up the processing at our end, I set up a project file that accepts this gml file, we zoom to the layer, align that with the canvas and produce the pdf file that goes back to the initial requestor.<br>
<br>
It worked fine for at least the last year. The layers in the project file are not large. The largest is 13Mb, the smallest is a few kilobytes. There are 17 layers in the project. I have had a request to put aerial imagery under the maps, but have resisted that because of the size of the images.<br>
<br>
What else do you need to know?<br>

Good thing your IT is wrong then hey :P <br>
<br>
I also suspect network if the files are large it will pull the whole thing over the network before it can open it. GML also isn't the most efficient format in the world so take that into consideration.<br>
<br>
What other layers are in the project? If you have lots of network layers it will try and read them when you load the new layer in order to refresh the map, remember each pan is going to read the files to get the data.<br>
<br>
We will need a bit more info on the project and files to help more.<br>
