Loads table not displaying the loads

[Anonymous]

I have a complex structure with several cases. I've added loads for several bars, some manually by clicking directly on the bars and others by copy-paste from excel.

When opening the loads table most of the cells in the "list" column are now blank. However going back to the view I can see the loads grafically and they are incorporated in the calculations.

If I choose one of those blank cells and type in numbers of bars, sometimes they appear but most times don't.

It has happened to me in the past but somehow it started working again. But now it's happening once again and restarting the computer isn't helping.

Is there any other way besides reinstalling the program?

Thanks

IN the meantime - open file in repair mode.

PLease send us screen capture showing problem, if possible upload the file

The file repair mode seems to have solved the problem.

If the problem returns I'll get back to this message, otherwise I'll check your reply as "solved" in a week's time

Opening in repair mode did fix the problem. However it also deleted a bunch of things, such as the screen captures and groups for members and nodes. I've had to recover the file several times, in some it seems nothing's deleted, in others a lot of things are. One thing's allways deleted are the screen captures.

By the way, don't know if it's related to this file or to my version of Robot, but when "saving", it doesn't save! ...and the file size increases! I have to save as, that reduces the file size while keeping the screen captures.

It seems you are using rather old robot version. From  curiosity :  which ?

It is normal, to reduce file size you have to use saveas and save file under new filename.
