This problem seems quite common. The cause is that the projection files were set to a different file tree (by TopSpin) than where they belong with the main dataset. For example, the datasets may be stored in folders other than the traditional /opt/topspin/data tree. But loading the plot layout somehow insists on the traditional data tree.
I described in a previous email how to correct for this. Robin Stein has since sent me the AU program to change the projection data tree. This seems to be a simple and robust way to handle this. Thank you, Robin.

Hi Hsin,
Sometimes I find that the projections were set properly on the spectrometer and, although they display properly on my own computer in TopSpin, they don't always plot properly. You have to right-click on them in the spectrum display to be sure that they are correct. The attached AU program will do this for you - it changes datasets 2 and 3 set by edc2 (usually the projections) to have the same DIR as the main dataset. I find that this helps a lot.

Subject: AMMRL: TopSpin plot editor layouts and projection objects
Dear AMMRL,
I created a layout that I liked for heteronuclear experiments with both projections and saved it. However, when I open the layout, the 2D plot is fine, but the 1D projections are missing. It feels the dimensions for the 1D projections are set properly, but the projection objects are not imported. Thereafter, even when I opened standard TS layout for 2D heteronuclear experiments, the projections are missing.
Has anyone seen this before? How can I get out of this? I am using TS3.5pl7.
Also, at one time I accidentally locked the layout, and cannot figure out how to unlock it.
