extrusions won't modify in VW11.5

[DDDesign]

Since updating to VW11.5, none of my previously created extrusions can be modified using the object Info Pallette. If I change the parameters they snap back to the previous number once I press enter. I have checked several files with the same result. Extrusions created in 11.5 work OK. This is a huge problem for me!

This topic has been covered recently in this forum. I am having the same exact problem and it is a big pain.

Oops!

Compare your Plug-ins from v11.01 with those from 11.5. Note the differences. You may have to mix & match to recover the functionality.

Just a thought...

Adam, thanks, yes I did have a look at previous posts. I didn't find anything when I looked first (it's a pity there isn't some kind of search engine on this forum). I've looked again and found a post 17 March, with a sugestion to reset preferences. I did this and all it did was ... reset my preferences. It's worse than a big pain, it makes v11.5 nearly unusable for me. It's a fundamental flaw. Maybe I should try to reinstall v11.01.

islandmon, thanks, but there are no plug-ins involved in the problem, just simple extrusions. I can't see how they would make a difference.

Try the search link, upper right.

The only way to modify these extrusions it to double click them (edit group) and edit the 2d shape that created the extrusion. This is a complete inconvenience. I am hoping that the good things in 11.5 will outway this very bad thing. Should be fixed by next update?

A temporary fix is to run the following script when the problem extrude is selected:

PROCEDURE Example;

VAR

h :HANDLE;

BEGIN

h := FInGroup(FSActLayer);

WHILE h <> NIL DO BEGIN

SetSelect(h);

h := NextObj(h);

END;

END;

RUN(Example);

Make it a plug-in menu command and you can assign it a keyboard shortcut. It probably will have to be run on any extrude after you Edit Group and Exit Group on it.

Too complicated!

Thanks Andrew!

Thanks, Andrew, although it seemed to work for some, but not all extrusions.
