Ross McLee Posted June 16, 2021 Share Posted June 16, 2021 Hi Guys, Not entirely sure how they got created, but I had a number of yellow triangular warning symbols dotted around a schematic the other day I selected the circuit lines which I thought they were associated with and tried to work out why they were highlighted. On clicking just the warning symbol I was able to delete it (and the offending associated circuit) so I am guessing that some how the circuit was zero length. I realise you have a lot on and we are all eagerly anticipating great things this summer (no pressure! 🙂 ) but, could you include this as a consideration to check for zero (or silly short) length circuits in the check drawing function or something? Thanks as always, Ross Quote Link to comment

Ross McLee Posted June 16, 2021 Author Share Posted June 16, 2021 I think I might have a backup file saved before I deleted them. Let me dig it out and forward if I have. TIA R Quote Link to comment
Vectorworks, Inc Employee Conrad Preen Posted June 16, 2021 Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted June 16, 2021 Hi @Ross McLee I checked the file. I think these arose because you renamed the device the circuits were connected to. When I select one of these circuits the source and destination device is Loudspeaker. So I suspect that you created these by accident during a duplicate-modify operation. You can tidy these using Custom Selection. We'll select for Circuit.ControlPoint03X = 0 and just delete them.

Ross McLee Posted June 16, 2021 Author Share Posted June 16, 2021 That is exactly what I have done! I created devices with the same name with joining circuits and mass copied them (they were simply called loudspeaker). I have moved them around etc but then renamed them to make them unique. I only deleted a handful so the fact you got 67 objects, I will follow your advice above and remove the remainder. Thanks as always. R Quote Link to comment
