P Retondo Posted August 24, 2003 Share Posted August 24, 2003 I just created a new class in a document, and attempted to assign it to a group of lines by entering the group, selecting all the lines, and changing the class assignement in the Object Info Palette. This causes the program to crash, invariably. I can select one line, and assign it to the new class. If I select more than one object (e.g., 2 lines), the program crashes. If I assign the group of lines to class other than the new one, no problem. Ungrouping the lines and attempting the assignment to the new class also causes a crash (BTW, this is a multiple window runtime error crash, in other words, I have to click on a runtime error message at least three times, sometimes many more, before the program quits). This looks like a bug. Is NNA aware of this, and are there any work-arounds? I am sending a file and a copy of this post to bugsubmit.

Vectorworks, Inc Employee Mark Farnan Posted August 25, 2003 Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted August 25, 2003 Hi Pete, Thanks for the file. If you delete that class and recreate it I think that will solve your problem. My best guess is that you created this class while you had a very large number of objects involved in a polygon-based rendering. This set of circumstances (which appear to no longer be in place in the file that you sent to us) happened to give your new class a very high number for it?s ?internal ID?, and that exposed this object info palette bug. We should be able to fix this problem in a future release. Thank again for the report. Best regards, Mark Farnan Core Technologies and Imaging Manager Nemetschek NA Quote Link to comment

Studio2Design Posted December 17, 2003 Share Posted December 17, 2003 I'm having a similar problem with 10.5.0. Objects I'm drawing in a class I have created are automatically assigning themselves to class"none". When I select these objects and try to reassign the class, vectorworks crashes. EVERY TIME. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Quote Link to comment
Vectorworks, Inc Employee Bruce Ferguson Posted December 19, 2003 Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted December 19, 2003 Are you working in a large file when you change the class of several objects and see a crash? Most of the time, this will work, but for certain classes in large files, it will crash, and you will need to modify one object at a time. Also what kind of object did you make that was assigned to the None class instead of the active class? Quote Link to comment
