[BUG] Duplicating design options with associative dimension causes crash

hevi — Mon, 30 Oct 2023 20:45:17 GMT

Duplicating a design option containing an associative dimension but only one of its associated elements crashes AC after closing the manager, saving the changes.

1. Create an element in the main model.

2. Create a new option set and with the new option active create another element and an associative dimension between the element in the main model and the element in the design option.

3. Duplicate the design option through the manager and press OK.

4. Crash.

Running AC27 3001 INT on windows 10 and can be consistently reproduced in the default template.

Noticed that this post got moved from the wish forum to general discussion - for what reason? I obviously WISH for this to get fixed - not sure how it falls under "Posts about job ads, news about competitions, events, learning resources, research, etc.".

It goes without saying that it would fit perfectly in a BUG forum.

Hi @hevi,

I tried to reproduce this situation any way but really it works fine for me & i don't see it's a bug.

So it may be something related to the operating system you have as your signature doesn't show this properly, thx.

The operating system is windows 10, as stated in the first post.

Yes you're right it's win 10, sorry if didn't notice as i always look into the signature,

About the crash also yes that's happening for your Archicad but i tried again the same steps and fortunately no crash.

I'm so sorry about that & i hope the local support can help you fast.

My AC 27 Crashed today 2 times when saving a new duplicated Design Option. Same exact procedure as "Thesleepofreason" noted here, and I'm on a MacBook Pro M3 Max running MacOS 14.3, with ArchiCAD 27 build 3001.

After deleting the associative dimensions... I re-tested and no Crash.... but I would like to keep the dimensions?

Is there a Bug Crash Fix for this... It has been nearly 4 months and I did not see any mention of Bug Crash Fix in AC 27 build 4060 release notes.

Update 27.2.0 preview was released a couple of weeks ago ... https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Graphisoft-Insights/Archicad-27-2-0-Update-Preview-release/ba-p/587351

If is suitable for your language, you could give that a try.

I've crashed 4 times in the last week while trying to add associated dimensions with multiple design options visible. Have submitted bug reports and will follow up with our local reseller. Will try the preview update, hope it helps!

Hi! with the revamped dimension tool we have been proposing (that is, no "associative vs non associative" dimensions nonsense), none of this would be happening and would be having friday drinks already.

(Still, im sorry to hear about the problem @hevi )

Good friday to all

What build are you on, Kelly? Your signature says 4060. The Preview update that Barry mentions is build 5001.

Our IT guy has downloaded the 5001 preview update and it hasn't crashed yet while dimensioning design options... fingers crossed!

It's been a few weeks since we downloaded the preview update for build 5001 and so far, so good. We haven't had any more crashes seemingly related to dimensions/design options. Thanks everyone!
