mirrored hotlink missing parts

Anonymous
Not applicable
I have a hotlink which is used twice in my project. One is un-mirrored and the other is mirrored. The un-mirrored one is fine but the mirrored one looses some walls. If I delete the mirrored one and copy mirror the original un-mirrored one, the walls reappear and everything is fine until I next load the project and they disapear again!

Any one had this problem and knows what is causing it?

Thanks.

Mirror a copy of original pieces and create a separate module of the mirrored condition.
Erika,

Do you know if this issue is known a considerable time? If so, I hope for a hotfix soon. I have a 90+ residential project and I need to start with the siteplan...

Again, if backwards compatibility was offered by GS, I could finish in AC11 with ease...

Sure. The thing is this has been a 'known issue' since the beginning of AC 12 times it seems. So together with a list of what they actually are fixing with each hotfix, a 'known issue' list would be nice --something like 'do NOT use this if you want to use this functionality' or 'do not waste your time banging your head against this wall and use some workaround, we know this is a problem and we have not fixed it yet'.

Hi all,

At my office, we're using AC18. The issue seems to be still there.
I'm reassured to know we're not doing anything wrong but I would really like to find a better workaround then having two separate HLMs.

So has this issue evolved or are we still at the same point?

Hi All,
This data loss has appeared in AC18 with update #1 (it has not been present for a long time). We have fixed it and the correction will become part of the next update package (#2)! Best regards, kata
