Flat pattern warning but no UI warning

3d_low — Fri, 05 Apr 2024 14:34:50 GMT

Hello Fusion people.

I will report bugs and odd behaviors I run into on this forum. I will make a habit out of this so here is my first one :

Inside the flat pattern i have a warning telling me that the reference is lost. I have no clear indication in the design browser tree that there is a problem with the flat pattern. No warnings when i save either. Can i trust a drawing referencing that flat pattern? I don't know. It seems like the drawing references ok but do I trust it? No.

Do I want to go individually inside every flat pattern in order to confirm the integrity of it? Not really

Should the browser tree UI give me a warning that something might be wrong. I would think so

I see you have a workaround of Save then Flat Pattern...Do you get any warnings after Close then Reopen and straight to Flatpattern? (What Screen Capture software is that?)

No warning nowhere unless i play hide and seek inside the flat patterns.

Loom, it's an app

@TheCADWhisperer the file has proprietary data so i can't just share it freely on the forums

@3d_low

Can you reproduce the behavior in a dummy file that does not reveal any proprietary data?

Replication has always been the Gold Standard in the sciences.

don't mean to be a D but i don't really have the luxury of time to clone stuff.
I'm really just posting it here so ADSK people can have a look, log or contact me for access to the designs.
