Using backspace/delete when changing dimension bug

Anonymous — Fri, 02 Dec 2016 07:54:33 GMT

I've noticed what I believe to be a new bug with Fusion 360. If I edit a feature's dimension and use the delete key on my Mac, it removes the units then closes the dialog instead of deleting the dimension value. I'm on the newest release.

To reproduce:

- Double click feature on timeline

- Click to edit dimension of feature

- Start hitting "delete" to delete each character

- Once the unit is deleted, the next "delete" press closes the "edit feature" dialog instead of deleting the value of the dimension

Here is a GIF of the issue:

Hi,

Thanks for showing this. I'm having a hard time reproducing it. Seems to be related to the complexity of the model, there is a timing issue. The good news is it might be fixed. I tried in development builds and didn't get your result once, and in production with the same model I could get it to happen, but only once. So I'm not too confident, but it seems like we might have fixed it. We have been working on the mechanisms that would be failing for you for the next update.

Does it happen 100% of the time, or just occasionally, or for certain features, or certain models only?

If you could share your model I can try it in development vs production to verify the fix/bug. Either way, if we can reproduce it we can fix it (but hopefully just confirm it's already fixed this time!).

Thanks,

Thanks for the quick reply! I will check other models but this happens 100% of the time for the given model. I'll report back my findings

If I create a square and edit the extrusion and hit delete, it closes rather than removing the dimension:
