    Repeatable Crash/System Freeze - Routed Systems 2010

    I found this out while I was creating a new iPart, and never really noticed it because I try to use unique names for my parameters. When this first happened I accidently set the parameter name to "S", cancelled the error message and my system froze.

     

    I've tried this on multiple templates (Default & User Created; IPT & IAM) and the crash/freeze is repeatable.  

     

    1.  Start new part

    2.  Open Parameters Dialog and Add a new parameter

    3.  Use a parameter name that you know will be incorrect, i.e.- S, KG.  Something that Inventor already uses as a parameter name.

    4.  You should get an error message saying something along the lines of "parameter name in use blah blah"

    5.  Cancel error message.

    6.  System freezes.  I can't ESC out of the dialog, can't cancel and it turns my screen to the faded white....

     

    Can anyone please confirm that I am not the only one with this issue???

     

    Thanks in advance,

    Could not get this to freeze my system, but I'm on 2011.  Sorry.
