Crash on Initialization While Updating Pads
ISSUE
"...
ASE crashes during the initialization process. More specifically, this is happening while the pads are being updated. I get the following message at the command prompt after just one alignment's pads attempt to update:

Updating '<alignment name>' pads.; error: AutoCAD variable setting rejected: "clayer" "_ASE-Design-Pads-Ties"
..."
​
CAUSE
This particular error occurs because the "Pad Ties" layer has been frozen.
​
SOLUTION
To resolve this issue simply thaw the layer "_ASE-Design-Pads-Ties". Barring any additional problems, ASE should initialize successfully.
