Arkitekt Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 When I attempt to join two walls using the Join tool, I receive an error message saying "This editing operation cannot be performed because of constraints on one or more objects involved." The error occurs with walls existing in the file, as well as newly created walls. If I use the "Edit Constraints" command while the walls are selected, I receive a message saying "The object does not have any parametric constraints." It should be noted that this error is occurring in only one particular file. Another person in the office is having the same problem with the same file, however, other users in the office do not get the error using the file. Has anyone encountered a error similar to this? If so, could you advise how to resolve it. Thank you. 1 Quote Link to comment
SonnyLuong Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 Are you picking the absolute right option to join the two walls? It happened to me on several instances when I am so into it and forgot to pick the right option for joining. Also make sure you isolated that particular wall because sometimes the layer option of the bottom layer also active. Quote Link to comment

This can be a few things, but if you HAVE used the Constraint tool, select the walls and then you can remove the constraints with Modify > Edit Constraints. If that says you didn't use any, then normally backing off the walls other ends from their joins and making sure you dont have a bunch of overlapping walls or joins resolves the issue. If not, you can post those walls in a file and I can have a look. Quote Link to comment
