General Instability Problems, Anyone Else Notice
General Instability Problems, Anyone Else Notice
(OP)
Hello all,
We are running SW2010 sp4.0 with PDM Enterprise and we are all noticing general instability issues with assemblies. More specifically things like the following:
Can't mate parts in assemblies (says over defined) even if no mates exist yet. If you delete the part and insert again, no problem with the mates.
Inserting a new part and you can not move it (like it is fixed but it is not fixed). The part has the (-) sign in the assy tree but you can not move, drag, or anything. Delete the part and insert again, no problem.
Mates that are fine one day then not ok the next day even though nothing has changed. Open the model delete the mate and apply the same mate again and it is now fine.
Is anyone else experiencing this stuff that never seems to be around before?

Bodybagger, I'm noticing I cannot move parts in assemblies' scenario over on my end as well. Also, my parts are changing Image Quality to (low quality) automatically when I modify features of a part.
