Ves Mandaric Posted January 26, 2000 Share Posted January 26, 2000 Pop-ups on 8.5.1 does not work or work sporadicaly. Make poly line,right mouse click-Edit, go on the tool bar, check "ADD VERTEX/DELETE VERTEX/and other buttons. Some of them pop-out some do not??No problem with 8.1! Quote Link to comment
Marc Pitman Posted February 2, 2000 Share Posted February 2, 2000 I tried this and it works fine on my pc. What do you mean by pop-up and pop-out? The vertices are deleted when I click on the "Delete Vertice" button, is this what you mean by pop-out? Are you having proplems with the object info palette not working? Quote Link to comment
Ves Mandaric Posted February 2, 2000 Author Share Posted February 2, 2000 No. It is small explanation box or info box usualy light yellow, and text inside explain what that buton is for. It will pop-out when you point cursor on it, without executing any comand, and will desapear in 3-6 secondsIf you did not have 8.0 or 8.5 you will hardly reckognize the problem. I talked with Phone Support people and they acknoweledged the mistake. Quote Link to comment
Marc Pitman Posted February 2, 2000 Share Posted February 2, 2000 I have 8.51 for Windows and have never seen one of these pop-outs but at least I'll know about it if it ever becomes a problem. Quote Link to comment
Ves Mandaric Posted February 3, 2000 Author Share Posted February 3, 2000 It is not a problem. It is a small confusig bug, that is very dangerous for the people who DOES NOT KNOW it could be better, that inform you about what is "hiding" behind the buton. I learned hard vay in many CAD programs by making test files and presing anything I could watching what would hapen. I agree with you for the Trim comand, in the cheep DraFixPro I started 10 years ago this would trim anything in the vay of the triming entity. God luck. Quote Link to comment
Guest Posted February 4, 2000 Share Posted February 4, 2000 Okay, let us see if I can ease the confusion. The "pop-up" that Ves is talking about, I believe, is the Windows equivelent of Balloon help on the Mac. If you pause over a tool for a few seconds, a "pops up" to tell you what the name of that button is. Yes, there is a bug with 8.5.1 that has been reported. Some of the "pop ups" do not work, others do, and some partially. We hope to have this worked out soon, but until that time your manual has a description of what each tool is and does, as well as when you select it the menu bar tells you what it is.
