Vectorworks, Inc Employee Stephan Moenninghoff Posted September 28, 2017 Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted September 28, 2017 I have been chasing a nasty bug that will stop the OIP from updating after a short time working with Marionettes in VWX 2018. Unfortunately, I cannot pin it down to any specific action which is ever so slightly annoying because it stops me from filing a usable bug... If anyone is able to reproduce this, any help is appreciated. What is happening is that the OIP will continue to show the info of the previous selected object or node until I go to Top/Plan view. Then, even when I continue to work in Top/Plan view, it will require me to press cmd-5 frequently to refresh the OIP. I don't know when or by what action this starts to happen but it always does (macOS). Is anyone else seeing this? Quote Link to comment
DomC Posted September 29, 2017 Share Posted September 29, 2017 Confirmed, I had the same Issue here. Which Build do you use? At the moment I can't reproduce. I used 387649 and I had this issue after every change of Marionette PIO Option in the Palette. After Rescale Info-Palette it was OK until the next object active and changing something, I ignored it and got to bed... iMac 27" Sierra at Home. Now I tried again with Build 390873 Mac Sierra in the office it looks fine now :-) Quote Link to comment
Vectorworks, Inc Employee Stephan Moenninghoff Posted September 29, 2017 Author Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted September 29, 2017 Ok, I just tried with Build 393163. No issue so far. Thanks for confirming, Dom. This may be fixed. Quote Link to comment
Vectorworks, Inc Employee Stephan Moenninghoff Posted October 4, 2017 Author Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted October 4, 2017 OK, I am seeing it again. Build 393163 Still no Idea why it is happening now. This time it's the Marionette itself. I'll keep an eye out. Quote Link to comment
Vectorworks, Inc Employee Stephan Moenninghoff Posted October 12, 2017 Author Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted October 12, 2017 Just downloaded and installed 395475. Still the same issue. What drives me crazy is that I cannot reproduce this. It just starts to happen after about 5 minutes working with my current file. That's a different file than when I first reported this. It's even a different computer. Oh, the mysteries of software.... Quote Link to comment
Marionette Maven Marissa Farrell Posted October 12, 2017 Marionette Maven Share Posted October 12, 2017 It might not be directly a Marionette issue, but just out of curiosity, which nodes exist in both files? (that are being run) Also, are you using Undo at all? I've run into this a couple of times, but like you haven't been able to find the exact reproducible case so I can't report it yet.

Vectorworks, Inc Employee Stephan Moenninghoff Posted October 12, 2017 Author Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted October 12, 2017 It happens only when using Marionette and it happens soon after working with any Marionette file. I'll send you the file off list. it's WIP. Unrelated to Undo, I'm quite certain. Quote Link to comment
DomC Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 I have it at the moment (Got to work on a presentation and that really stops me now ) I am working with marionette nodes. Now I have the following symptom: 1. Objekt-Info of every PIO in every File do not work correctly anymore 2. After restarting Vectorworks it works again for a while 3. I have it reproducible if I create a menu command of a Wrapper. 4. After that, the Info-Palette is completely numb I have to restart Vectorworks -on a Mac :-) Maybe it's because I work in a Beta-Build of German Version based on SP1 ... I reported this as a bug with a vwx and a movie file ... Quote Link to comment
Vectorworks, Inc Employee Stephan Moenninghoff Posted October 14, 2017 Author Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted October 14, 2017 I sent a video to @Marissa Farrellyesterday. In my case, it happened after using the slider but it has happened with files where no slider was used. Good luck with your presentation. I look forward to seeing it on Monday :-) Quote Link to comment
DomC Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 (edited) Maybe I am sick on Monday :-)) Edit: Seems to be related to Preferences. Edited October 15, 2017 by DomC Quote Link to comment
Vectorworks, Inc Employee Stephan Moenninghoff Posted October 16, 2017 Author Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted October 16, 2017 Hey @DomCyou should post your presentation video on the Marinette forum. It‘s inspiring. Everybody should see it. Quote Link to comment
Benny Franke Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 Hi there, I have the same problem. I found out when ever you select a Node and press cmd+s it refreshes and works for one click. It is just a work around that forces you to save your project after every change in Marionette. I also have discovered that when you press undo that it jumps way back and I can't undo the undo. Has anyone the same issue? (only in Marionette) Quote Link to comment
Vectorworks, Inc Employee Stephan Moenninghoff Posted November 2, 2017 Author Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted November 2, 2017 Yes, I have had Undos where it jumped back several steps. Very very hard to pin down. But I'm sure someone will eventually so the engineers can fix it. Quote Link to comment
elepp Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 Hey Guys, I still have this issue in the latest release. Does anyone know what the problem is and when it will be fixed? Best regards, Ed Quote Link to comment
