Uli Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 (edited) Does anybody has problems with the Combining and Connecting of Polylines? In VW Landmark 2010 I had no problems, in VW 2013 I can't combine or connect Polylines, I get the message Combine/Connect failed and I don't get the dialogbox as described in the manual: "In this situation, the Connect/Combine Options dialog box opens." Maybe I missed a setting, I'm coming from VW 2010 Landmark. VW 2013 Landmark Win 7 64 bit Edited November 4, 2012 by Uli Quote Link to comment
mike m oz Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 That message tends to come up when the polylines are on different planes so check for that condition. Quote Link to comment
Uli Posted November 4, 2012 Author Share Posted November 4, 2012 (edited) Thank you mike, I was also thinking about that, because I had that problem in VW 2010 sometimes. But here it is different. I open a blank document, draw two lines and combine them, no problem. I draw two polylines and can't combine them and get the red messsage, bottom right Connect/Combine failed. If you have no problem in VW 2013 Win 7 I have to look further. Edited November 4, 2012 by Uli Quote Link to comment
michaelk Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 Works as expected on the mac version of 2013. Which mode of the connect/combine tool is failing? mk Quote Link to comment
Uli Posted November 4, 2012 Author Share Posted November 4, 2012 (edited) No connect / combine tool is working with Polylines. 1. Open blank document 2. Draw normal line, everthing ok. 3. Draw polylines (open) not working. 4. Class none, Design layer, Plane layer If I draw polygons (open) in vertex mode I have no problems. So line ok, polygon ok, polyline no Edited November 4, 2012 by Uli Quote Link to comment
michaelk Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 I can't make it fail... Can you post an example of 2 polylines that won't combine/connect? mk Quote Link to comment
Uli Posted November 4, 2012 Author Share Posted November 4, 2012 I have done different attempts, but the polylines, drawn in corner vertex mode are failing in any case. If I convert them to polygons no problem. All other geometry shown in the attached file are working. Thanks for your help. Quote Link to comment
michaelk Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 Yep. I'm seeing it, too. In 2013, SP 1. If there are only corner vertices in a polyline, then the combine/connect tool fails. It even fails if you carefully draw a straight "line" with the polyline tool in bezier mode. As soon as those polylines have just a hint of a curve the combine/connect tool works on them. Looks like a bug to me. Please submit it. mk Quote Link to comment
mike m oz Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 In experiments I get some instances with polylines that won't connect using the Connect Combine tool. None with the error message first reported though. Uli can you please file a bug report with your examples. Quote Link to comment
Uli Posted November 5, 2012 Author Share Posted November 5, 2012 Thanks for your help, I submitted the problem as a bug report. First I'm always thinking I can't see the forest for the trees. Quote Link to comment
Uli Posted November 30, 2012 Author Share Posted November 30, 2012 SP2 for me no change :-( Quote Link to comment
Uli Posted March 29, 2013 Author Share Posted March 29, 2013 SP3 no change, bugreport twice. Works perfect in VW 2010 Quote Link to comment
Uli Posted June 24, 2013 Author Share Posted June 24, 2013 (edited) SP4 no change Polyline in Corner Vertex mode with connect combine for me useless. Even the Single object connect mode is not working, works with lines. Edited June 24, 2013 by Uli Quote Link to comment
