Bruce Kieffer Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 When editing a polyline in Move Polygon Handles Mode, if I click (nothing else) a control point it disappears and the polyline's shape changes dramatically. Why? Quote Link to comment
Rossford Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 Sometimes I have to click off and then hit the edit tool again, because the tool sticks in the previous mode. I don't know why, but it sure sounds like you are in the "-" mode rather than the move mode. Quote Link to comment
MullinRJ Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 If you are using VW 2010, it probably is the wrong mode. But if you are using VW 2011, then it is a serious bug with the 2D Reshape tool. I reported it several months ago, but it's not slated to be fixed until VW 2012. Undo is your friend. Raymond Quote Link to comment
Bruce Kieffer Posted April 22, 2011 Author Share Posted April 22, 2011 I have the tool in the correct mode. It has to be a bug. I'll post a screen capture and send it to tech support. I am getting a bit tired of beta testing VW 2011. Quote Link to comment
MullinRJ Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 Bruce, ???NV is aware of the problem and is working hard to deliver the best product possible. I have seen them fix bugs in days, obviously most take a bit longer. I over stated the seriousness of the situation, probably because I responded late and was tired. ???Since the tool does work if you move the vertex, my advice is not to click on a vertex without moving it, and use Undo if you forget. The problem is reported and it is slated to be fixed. My apologies for sounding negative. All the best, Raymond Quote Link to comment

go2greece Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 bruce, do you have checked in your preferences >>>EDIT>>>click drag drawing? i can reproduce this behavior only if >>>click drag drawing is switched on. peter Quote Link to comment
Bruce Kieffer Posted April 22, 2011 Author Share Posted April 22, 2011 I do have click drag checked, but even turned off, if you click twice slowly, the same thing happens. Quote Link to comment
mike m oz Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 Bruce, like Go2greece I can only get the behaviour you do when the Click Drag Drawing preference is on. When it is off I can't get it to behave like you do. Quote Link to comment
go2greece Posted April 23, 2011 Share Posted April 23, 2011 Bruce, yes, i think it is a bug. i got the same result. double click, very slow does this uncontrolable behaivior. i could repeat this with polyline and 2d-polygon. i think the 2d-reshape(move handle) was done like this> click the vertex >drag the vertex>click at new location. if you slowy double click at the same location of the handle VW gets confused:-0 peter Quote Link to comment
Horst M. Posted April 23, 2011 Share Posted April 23, 2011 Hallo Bruce, I've seen this "Jumping Verticies" behaviour while Editing extrudes in Front or Sideview, and could avoid it by switching from "Layer Plane" to "Sceen Plane" before editing the Object. Quote Link to comment
Bryan G. Posted April 23, 2011 Share Posted April 23, 2011 Bruce, This one may be off the wall but I also experienced issues like yours that progressively got worse. It wound up being the mouse. It is a wireless mouse and it had an internal issue. I had to remove the battery and click the buttons to drain the internal capacitor, then reinstall battery and Like magic back to normal. Dont know if this would work for you but if you have a wireless mouse, its worth a shot. Quote Link to comment
mike m oz Posted April 23, 2011 Share Posted April 23, 2011 go2greece I can confirm your experience with Click Drag Drawing off. If I click twice with a half second delay I do get the behaviour you do. Yes it is bad behaviour but it is a problem easily avoided by not clicking twice on the same vertice when in move vertice mode. Quote Link to comment
Bruce Kieffer Posted April 23, 2011 Author Share Posted April 23, 2011 Bryan, I use a Wacom tablet and the Wacom mouse. I know about a bad mouse. I've had that a few times, and I know what to expect when it goes bad. I think this mouse is fine. Quote Link to comment
Bryan G. Posted April 24, 2011 Share Posted April 24, 2011 ok, sounds like a possible bug than. Maybe after all of the fixes to 2011 they'll have 2009 running good! Quote Link to comment
domer1322 Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 I was curious ... same thing here .... no problem if "clig drag" is off (on Windows VW 2011) Quote Link to comment
Bruce Kieffer Posted April 27, 2011 Author Share Posted April 27, 2011 This has been confirmed as a bug and is now on the "fix" list. Quote Link to comment
