Problem: DS locks up when using Entity Snaps
Occurs When: Happens when I select an object using Entity Snaps to attach a dimension or move/copy with reference point.
History: This just started happening in the new version V1R3.1 x64.
Screen Shot: I was trying to add a dimension to the conveyor, end snap: [external link removed, and added to media here in DS, with "authorize download" checked on.
Work Flow:
- This drawing was created with a new blank template in DS.
- Then, the customer's plant layout was pasted as a block (remains a block in dwg).
- Then, the robot palletizer drawing was created.
- To finish, I was adding overall dimensions. I started by trying to dimension the vertical length of the conveyor. This is the red circle in my "DS_lockup.jpg" attached. I checked it again and same thing happened - DS struggles to 'pre-select' the end point or intersection of the top-left corner of the conveyor. It hesitates and doesn't put the yellow symbol Esnap indicators up there. If I pick the corner anyway (without seeing the yellow 'pre-select) DS crashes. Esnaps I use are end, intersect, circle, median. You'll see these (I think) in the uploaded .dwg.
- Note: once I see that the 'pre-select' isn't working, I force an Esnap of endpoint from the toolbar, and that usually prevents the crash. This happens often, so when the 'pre-select' doesn't work, I cancel, save, and then force a single esnap.
Additional Observation: Sometimes I notice that various blocks I copy/paste are placed on different Z heights besides zero. All 2D drawings, so they should all be inserted with z=0. DS struggles to 'pre-select' entities that I've noticed are pasted in on different z's. I am on Z=0 because when I draw a line, z=0. I only draw in 2D, not 3D.
Thank you,
