A minor yet serious bug in AC11?

Anonymous
Not applicable
Has anyone tried the special snap points - between intersection points tool on a curved wall with a couple of linear walls trimmed by the curved one? When i try to use the tool in plan, the index point flashes at some weird point which is not definitely the half point for example between the intersection points of walls! However, if you try it in the 3d window, it works fine. Any comments?

A screen shot would help.

If you are using the Special Snap icon among the relative construction methods, I believe this only works along a linear vector.

and finally the 3d window where it works fine
Very helpful, thank you. It looks like it is between the intersections of the two vertical walls to me -- is that not what you wanted?

EDIT: Made this post before the 3rd screen shot was posted. So it's showing the midpoint, but between the wrong vertical walls?

Comment removed - me not reading properly again...
I'm having no problem with straight walls, but it finds the midpoint of the curved wall on the reference side and a seemingly random point of the curved wall on the other side (using Stuart's example). Something does seem wrong...

Since Stuart removed his examples...
