Bruce Kieffer Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 I can't tell for sure if there's some action I'm doing that cause this to happen, but since updating to SP4 I've had my all menus completely gray out and become non-functional 3 times. I've been rotating objects a lot, and using the Z key to zoom in. Quote Link to comment
Farookey Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 Hi... Does this happen when one particular file is open? or does it occur with any file? Quote Link to comment
Bruce Kieffer Posted July 20, 2011 Author Share Posted July 20, 2011 One file so far, but that is the only file I've been working on since SP4. Quote Link to comment
grant_PD Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 Happens to me all the time. Seems to be triggered by a global change, like editing a texture or changing a class's feature. Quote Link to comment
Farookey Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 I remember it happening (and it still does) in VW2010. The reason (in my case), was when a door was created with a width of zero. This caused all the menu items to be grayed out. It seems this doesn't happen (due to the zero width door) in VW2011. But maybe your issues are somewhere along the lines of editing a plug-in object (or something) in a similar manner. Try to remember if you had to customize something along the same lines... In my predicament, I was even unable to quit Vectorworks, and had to force quit [Cmd + Option + Esc], until I figured out the problem! Oh how I remember THAT day!!! Quote Link to comment
