[rgourrat]

hi,

everuthing is in the title.

It's Ok for plines closed or not but not for Mpolygon.

It's very frustrating.

thanks for your advices or workaround

Hi Rémy,

Here are my observations from testing in the 2014 release of AutoCAD Map 3D (I always test on the current release first) --

• GRIPS = 0 deactivates all grips in a mpolygon.
• Grips behavior is the same for mpolygon under GRIPS = 1 as GRIPS = 2. This is different from the behavior of polylines: when GRIPS = 1, the rectangular grips in polylines are disabled. When GRIPS = 2, the rectangular and square grips in a polyline are enabled.
• There is a difference between polyline and mpolygon fundamentally - mpolygon objects do not contain rectangular grips. So I can see why they behave the same under GRIPS = 1 as GRIPS = 2.
• The middle grip in a mpolygon is always for moving the object.

If you disagree with anything here, then that is fine. Just provide an explanation of what you are expecting and why, and I can see about reporting this to Development.

Thanks!
