Archicad 11 error...(Polygon has less than 3 verticles.)

Anonymous — Thu, 10 Apr 2008 21:50:08 GMT

"polygon has less than 3 verticlals at line 239 in the 3d script of the WallHoleCUt.gsm"

Thats the error msg I suddenly got, iv never had this problem with archicad in the past, this is the 1st time iv used archicad 11 though (on my mac) and I have just lost hours of work.

Basically, the plans remain in the 2d view, but when I try to open the 3d window that msg appears and the screen is blank.

It crashed on me early on also when I tried to save, my work vanished but I didnt get that error msg.

Can any1 shed any light on this, cheers....

I can't help with your problem, but I believe the message might be "Polygon has less then 3 VERTICIES". If a polygon had two verticies it would be a line. If only one vertex, its a dot.

If you check line 239 of the script you can see what command was there and what variables it was using. Probably one of these variables is set in a way that the result is not a polygon (maybe the result is a rectangle with one side of it being zero or something).
