Crazy behaviour: Element Templates association get lost by certain actions

Hallo,

we use MicroStation Connect Edition 11. 800

We use a lot of Element Templates to define Styles incl. 3D-Pattern and 3D-Linestyles

We have noticed, that if we do the command ctrl. + c  and then ctrl + p the Element template is no more associated. Level Color and so on is all correct, but element template information itself is gone. 

We have noticed, that if we are importing a cell with element template definition, that this definition is partly gone, especially if the element is a 3D-Linestyle or 3D-Pattern. We tested this even with "merge into master". After merging the element template information is deleted. Is this a known issue?

Kind regards

Gerd Geisler

  • Hallo,

    try for copying: ctrl. + c and for paste: ctrl. + v (sorry I do this automatically, but you are right paste is ctrl. + v)

    After reinserting  the template isn´t associated anymore to the element.

    Try that and tell me, if you have the same issue.

    Kind regards

  • Once you finish the operation, you have to accept the change by entering the data point to the next line. Here enclosed the video file for reference.

  • He meant to copy element using clipboard and then pasting it from clipboard. Templates are also not copied using smartmatch(defect logged 995509 )

  • Oh, I see. Thanks for the correction. As a work around, he could use our MS tool right mouse click menu and Copy command which would deliver the information correctly.

  • Hallo Kim,

    thanks, we know workarounds, but it would be nice if you could correct it in the next version it´s a source of mistakes. It would be also very nice, if you could correct smartmatch. This would be very helpful. We also recognized the behaviour as oto mentioned.

    Thanks
