mattOC Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 Hi, I seem to be having an issue with the object info palette. Every so often when I select a window or a door in my active drawing, the object info palette is blank. no information comes up. I need to double click and enter the master box which is unnecessary for some of the minor changes I need to make. I have saved, closed, quit, reopened, changed workspaces and every combination. I still seem to get it speratically. Is there anything I can do to correct this? thanks, M Quote Link to comment
michaelk Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 I've seen this 3 or 4 times, also. I don't know for sure that it's limited to window objects. Moving around the drawing, selecting something else and going back to the original object seems to help. mk Quote Link to comment
mattOC Posted March 5, 2016 Author Share Posted March 5, 2016 I've tried every combination of selecting different, creating new, selecting all, moving the page, moving to the sheet layer.... seems like noting "does it" it just comes back when it wants to. Quote Link to comment
CipesDesign Posted March 6, 2016 Share Posted March 6, 2016 I assume you have tried restarting your computer?? Quote Link to comment
barkest Posted March 16, 2016 Share Posted March 16, 2016 have you tried switching views? So go to top plan then back to isometric for example then select. I saw this issue a while back but this fixes it for me. Quote Link to comment
Art V Posted March 16, 2016 Share Posted March 16, 2016 Another thing that may sometimes help is to save the file (without closing it), after that you can resume normal operation. It is as if memory is not reliable at times and a save resets whatever is causing the behaviour. Quote Link to comment
martinfdc Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 I'm having the exact same issue with my object info palette. Another workaround I found is that if you drag-select (clicking+dragging+ pressing alt), the info on the info pallets shows up. But this is just a workaround. Has anyone been able to completely fix this issue? and is this issue related to this one in this thread: https://techboard.vectorworks.net/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=224760 ...I'm also having the undo issues explained in the thread above maybe reseting the preferences might work but I'd like to be sure it works before I do it.
