gnkarch Posted January 9, 2003 Share Posted January 9, 2003 Just upgraded to VW Architect 10.0.1. Have read with interest problems with runtime errors. My installation seemed to go fine. This morning I began my first project on VW10. When selecting more than 1 object, and attempt to change attributes of objects (objects are rectangles and lines in none class), the program crashes: "Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library Runtime Error! Program C...path (VW10) This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way. Please contact the application support team for more information." I updated my video driver this morning(suggested by Katie on a previous post) to no avail. If anyone can offer a solution, I would appreciate it. Windows XP Home P4 2.23 Ghz 512 Mb RAM NVIDIA 64MB DDR GeForce 3 Ti200 (Dell) In the meantime, back to VW 9.5.2. At least that version works. GNKARCH Quote Link to comment
P Retondo Posted January 9, 2003 Share Posted January 9, 2003 Tried this with my setup, and did not experience a crash. I created three rectangles, four lines, selected them all and changed the fill and line colors without crashing. Is this the kind of operation that is causing you problems?

gnkarch Posted January 9, 2003 Author Share Posted January 9, 2003 Thanks for your reply P. After reading your reply I opened VW10, created 2 rectangles & 1 line on untitled doc that opens w/ program. Selected 1 object, than all 3 w/o experiencing problems. The file that I am experiencing problems w/ was setup w/ VW Architect project setup commands. The program will crash when selecting just 1 object & attempting to change its attributes. Objects are on Floor Plan sheet, Mod-Floor layer. Quote Link to comment
Vectorworks, Inc Employee Robert Anderson Posted January 10, 2003 Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted January 10, 2003 gnkarch, am I to understand that this runtime error occurs *only* when you use the setup command? Which command? Quote Link to comment
gnkarch Posted January 10, 2003 Author Share Posted January 10, 2003 Robert: The file that I had trouble with was set up using the "Document Setup", Model Setup", and Create Standard Sheets" utilities in that order. The file was the my first and only so far on VW10. I didn't install program until 1/8/03. When the file caused the program to crash, that file would not appear on the current file list, under the File menu. As an experiment, I opened the file, then closed the file without making any modifications. That file then appeared on the Current File list. I re-opened the file from the Current Files list, and to my surprise the operation(s) that caused the file to crash the program, no longer did so. Explain that one to me! Quote Link to comment
Vectorworks, Inc Employee Robert Anderson Posted January 10, 2003 Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted January 10, 2003 Most of these unexplained runtime errors occur as a result of video drivers. So my suggestion is to get the latest drivers for your video card and see if that helps. Quote Link to comment
gnkarch Posted January 10, 2003 Author Share Posted January 10, 2003 Robert: If you read my first post, you will notice that the first thing I did after encountering the problem was to update my video driver. Quote Link to comment
