infinite arcs


Recommended Posts

One of my users has been having intermittent problems with VW 9.5.3 showing infinite extensions off of arcs when printed. This does not show on screen. I have isolated the problem down to having a arc in very close proximity (.00001) but not touching. Once you connect the two it prints normally.

The following sequence of tools are usually used prior to this:

two lines are drawn a fillet joins them. a line is added and the menu command for Join or trim is used. the infinite arcs and extensions appear and if you check the proximity one of the lines is very close but not touching the arc.

I don't know what this information tells you, I am going to try to get my user to change slightly how he draws, but need to tread lightly as his name is on the door...if you know what I mean and I think you do. [smile]

Ion,

I've seen this here and there, and only with certain printers. Go figure.

Before you print, try to zoom out so that the vertex of the arc is visible on the drawing screen (even if it's outside of the drawing area).
