Field does not update the area after regen

Hello

 

I have one drawing with a problem with my fields.

We use fields to show the area of a polyline of a unit. Normally if you pull at the ends of the polyline (make the area bigger or smaller) and you use the regen command, the field automatically updates the area.

But in this one drawing it doesn't.

 

If i select the field and the polyline and copy it in a new drawing everything works perfect there. If i copy it again to the first drawing it gives back the problem.

When you look at the field propertys you see that the area is different (read correct now) from the one shown in modelspace, and if you close the field propertys it adjusts the field shown in modelspace to the correct value of the polyline.

 

Thanks for your help

 

 

Kind regards

Maxim Bode

Use the fieldeval command and one of these values:

 

 

0    ->    Not updated

1    ->    Updated on open

2    ->    Updated on save

4    ->    Updated on plot

8    ->    Updated on use of ETRANSMIT

16  ->    Updated on regeneration
