Topic: 1011 xdata (world space coords) not updating in Acad 2011

[TomN]

Hi All,
This is my first post to this forum, although I have programmed AutoCAD for several years (R10?). I'm having a problem with xdata. I have an AcDbPolyFaceMesh (representing a sheet metal panel) that I created with Lisp. I attached 1011 xdata so I could retrieve accurate coordinates if the user re-sizes the panel by stretching it. I have done this before and don't recall having a problem. However, in Acad 2011, I noticed that the data does not update after stretching the panel.  I tried the same code in the new Bricscad Platinum and the xdata updates after stretching as expected. Has anyone had this problem recently in AutoCAD?

Thanks,
Tom

Welcome to the Swamp.

I don't have 2011 but there may be someone along that has and may offer some advice.

Thanks CAB. Glad to be here.

I am sad to report that I can confirm that bug based on very limited testing.

I tried a point, a line a 3dpolyline and a mesh. The mesh failed to update, the others updated ok.

Unacceptable Autodesk.

Sorry, my mistake. I neglected to translate the points from the UCS to WCS. Once I did, I got the expected result in Acad 2011.

That's good news.
