Hello,

I still run Cadkey 99 for legacy parts. I imported a linear rail bearing block and today it started acting up. The block will not render which indicated to me that there is some issue with the part. I tried to delete the part from the model and it won't delete. I've tried de-solidifying it, the rebuild wireframe command, bursting the collecting, moving it to another level and then deleting that level with no results. I ran into this problem years ago but don't remember if there is a solution.

Have you tried saving under a different name? Or try exporting it as a sat file then re-import.
 
Hello,

I tried saving it out as a different name but it still has the same issue.

When I verify the attibutes of the part, it shows as a collective and a reference item which is typical of solid parts, but it's unresponsive to other commands. It highlights as a complete item when selecting it for delete or other operations, but nothing happens. Strange.

I may look at exporting it as an SAT, but I've got a lot of wireframe parts in the model as well.
