Exploded line sketch(crashes sw)
Exploded line sketch(crashes sw)
(OP)
Hello all, I need thoughts and maybe similair experiences. See the Image---
I created the first ELS (exploded line sketch) which you'll see in the image. When I try and create a second ELS between the next boss and hole you see there SW will crash EVERY single time. This is the only time I've come across crashing during this function. I choose the axis1 and axis15 (or the boss) that one is fine. Then I choose axis2 and axis14 (or the boss)and it crashes. Also another point is the green part you see is a curved surface, bent using the Flex feature so it stretches those holes a bit so that’s my reason for using the axis as ref and not the hole.
I'm unfortunatley using SW '05 SP1.1. The decision makers seem to think upgrading service packs causes more problems with the legacy files. Such as viewer issues we came across and doing batch conversion of files. And as always the ones making these decisions are the one who don't even touch SW.
Besides my rambling anyone see this issue also. Or have ideas?
THX!!

Upgrading to new versions and SP's does not create more problems, there is a reason why they are there. (upgrades, not downgrades).

I've got plenty of ram, 4g (which IT thought was the problem with the regular crashing)
But i've come to the conclusion that its the 64mb video card (nvidia quadro nvs)
