Hey All!,
Is anyone else experiencing issues with ORD Survey 2021 R1 and the Graphical Manipulators and Link Code Textual Manipulators?. In any 2020 version you can select a survey chain and the Link Codes will textually appear along with the Graphical Manipulators (GM). Hovering the cursor over the GM will produce a 'tool tip' that says 'Move". You can also just select any single Survey shot, and hover over the GM and it will also say "Move". If you select that GM, it sticks to the cursor (like flypaper) and allows it to be moved. Back to selecting a survey chain or line, the Link Codes will appear. It might say NONE on most of them, but there will be STARTs and whatever else is coded on that chain. If you hover over that text a 'tool tip' will say "Link Code" and it will highlight showing that it's 'active'. If you select that text, it will produce a drop-down list of all the available Link Codes for you to choose from to associate to that shot.
Well, this works fine in any 2020 version, but doesn't work in 2021. Is anyone else seeing this? Am I missing something? I've tried this in my own Workspace as well as Bentley's... same result. It sure seems broken unless there is something unique added it 2021 to activate or deactivate this functionality but I can't find anything.
I've tried this on my primary computer and my Surface Pro, as well as with an associate on his computer. All instances, all Workspaces, produced the same result.
Hey Mark: Yep. As luck would have it, I am seeing the same problem in 2021 R1. GRRRR.
This week was the first survey I had processed in this version and today was the first time I needed to perform the noted manipulations.
I have found no solutions nor workaround as yet.

Robert, thanks for verifying it. I logged it with Bentley over the weekend (Bentley Service Request 7001349849) but haven't heard from them yet. This is really bad, and makes certain editing (Link Codes) clunky, and the inability to 'move' (tweak) the position of a point with the GMs ... devastating to me.
I just found out that the Textual and Graphical Manipulators are Zoom dependent in 2021 R1.
This doesn’t work:
This works:
Thanks for the info. All I can say is....well, I better not say that here
Same problem here. God I hate this software. If it's not bad enough trying to learn all the new stuff, then you have to deal with crap like this. I'd take Geopak back any day.
