Drawing Bug in 2006 SP4.1

Drawing Bug in 2006 SP4.1

Drawing Bug in 2006 SP4.1

(OP)
I have seen a problem with section views in 2006 SP4.1. It reproduces on our system by following this procedure:

1. Make a partial section of an assembly.
2. Break alignment on the section view.
3. Move the section view
4. Scale the section view so it appears larger.
5. Now drag one of the section view arrows to widen or narrow the span of the partial section.
6. The section view will become a projected view of the item being sectioned and will not return to a section view once it has failed.

RE: Drawing Bug in 2006 SP4.1

I've followed these steps several times with two different assemblies and can't reproduce the bug on my machine.

RE: Drawing Bug in 2006 SP4.1

I've also had problems with partial section views with SW06 sp4.1 - even when the view alignment hasn't been broken, the view 'jumps' to a different location on the sheet.

My reseller (SolidSolutions) is currently investigating the issue.

RE: Drawing Bug in 2006 SP4.1

This was corrected with SP5.0, Work around double click section line twice.

RE: Drawing Bug in 2006 SP4.1

MichaelWeb74, are you using SW06 SP5.0 Early Visibility, or did you read about this fix?  Just wondering if it is a gamble to run production with SP5.0 EV.

RE: Drawing Bug in 2006 SP4.1

I found fix listed SW Knowledge Base, I did not know SP5.0 was EV. Dose work around work, I could not reproduce problem in SP 4.1.

RE: Drawing Bug in 2006 SP4.1

I also followed the steps and could not reproduce the problem.
