Deleting A Current Feature Causes Everything Above To Fail

Deleting A Current Feature Causes Everything Above To Fail

Deleting A Current Feature Causes Everything Above To Fail

(OP)
Like the title says, I've got a model and if I delete, suppress or even edit with rollback, the entire model fails. Operations above that have nothing to do with the current feature just fail. Anyone have this happen?

RE: Deleting A Current Feature Causes Everything Above To Fail

i have it happen if the feature is in relation with another feature but i think its "normal" its like the "remove params" if you go back and try remove params and keep the ones that after the "current feature" it will delete the features after "current feature"

What is the feature that you are trying to delete?
Is it towards the top of the model tree?

RE: Deleting A Current Feature Causes Everything Above To Fail

Look into this setting. There is a setting in the Customer defaults called delete child features. Check this out. I do not know if this will fix your issues but it is worth a shot.

RE: Deleting A Current Feature Causes Everything Above To Fail

What version are you on? I'm on 7.5 and have had this happen. Like you say, on some models deleting or editing a feature near or at the bottom of the feature tree causes failure of many of the features above the offending feature. It seems to be random and definitely rare, but it happens. I can't offer any guidance on what to do (I often have to remodel the part), but you are not in a unique position.

RE: Deleting A Current Feature Causes Everything Above To Fail

You can try running part clean up. I'm not at my desk right now, but use the command finder and type part clean up.

Part clean up will sometimes fix things. There are some warnings if you turn on all the options. To be safe you can make a copy of the file and turn all the options on.

If that does not work I would set current feature near the top of the part history. Then turn on features until I found the one that is the problem.
