What does this WARNING mean and how to fix it:

Anonymous
Not applicable
So I have had to reinstall Archicad after the program had a melt down today.

But when I opened my file I had this message when I went to view 3D: "WARNING! Wrong Edge List Direction in pgon 211." And gives me the option of STOP or CONTINUE.

If I hit continue then my system stalls and if I hit stop then it brings me to a 3D screen that is missing LOADS of my wall elements. The weird thing is that some of the identical walls are still there. You'd think if one had a problem, then they would ALL have a problem given they were created by multiple copying.

Clearly one polygon somewhere along the line has caused my file to have kittens but how do I find which one it is??

Hopefully someone is awake to help me. TIA.

Select half the objects and choose selection/marquee in 3D (F4).
keep halving till you find the culprit.
