Duct Transitions - Part II

Still need some help on creating a variable length duct transition. I downloaded the file as directed previously, but when I create a new transition (test transition) as described in the video and select OK it kicks me out of the content builder and the new transition part is not created. Also if I try to modify one of the existing transitions it also kick me out of the content builder.
Please Help
Tom

Jason,
When I click new Parametric Part it Prompts me for a part name and description and then I click OK, Next thing I know I am at the command prompt. Although I briefly see the content builder dialog box, when I would go back into the content builder my part is gone. Also if I go to modify and existing part, as soon as I click modify parametric part I go back to the command line.

Hmmm, that sounds bad...

It sounds like you may have some kind of installation issue. Let me dig
around for a bit and see if I can make anything like that happen, or find
someone who might know why something like that would happen.

Hi Tom -

I sent an email to the address you have listed here with some questions. Is
there another way of contacting you "off-line"?

As a note to all:

If you are going to try and use content builder, be sure the SDI variable is
set to 0. The parametric portion of content builder needs to create a new
drawing to work correctly, so it will not work if SDI is set to 1.
