Trouble creating a new section in the user database

Anonymous — Fri, 09 Oct 2015 18:42:04 GMT

I`ve created a section in the section defenition module. I calculate the properties and then add it to the user database. But when I go back to my structure and import the section it has no section properties (or at least they are zero). What am I doing wrong? I`ve done this several times, but never experienced this before and now I can`t see what I`m doing wrong.

what happens after this section is imported into your model?

Still no/zero properties on properties table?

In the section defenition the properties is calculated, it`s when I import the section in my model the properties dissapear.

The file is attached. Had to zip it as *.sec file was not allowed.

I thik that everything depend by the name of category of profile. Try to NOT USE the symbol + in the name, and you can see that everything will work properly.

Cheers

I started out with names without any symbols, and tried again now, but still no results. Guess there`s something bug.

Some update concerning this post.

Above anomalies no longer observed by Eirik.

The reason was probably in running simultaneously more than one Robot and the user database still kept opened.

After saving the section to user section database it is recommended to exit and restart robot. In such case the database is also closed and while closing it is updated with all changes made.
