Attempting to plot a camera view crashes MEP

In MEP 2015, when I try to plot a camera view MEP crashes.

 

Anyone else have this issue?

 

Any solutions?

Is this happening in just one file or any file that you try to plot the camera view? Is it only crashing for one camera view in the drawing or any camera view in the drawing? If this issue is only with one view, you may want to try to recreate the camera and see if will plot with the new camera view.

 

Have you checked your file for any type of corruption? Try running AUDIT on the file.

 

Would it be possible for you to post your file here so I can test with it?

No need to send a file.
Just open a new drawing, draw any object (line 3d box, whatever), create a camera, looking at the object, with the "Camera" command (hit enter when prompted for camera name).
Start "plot" command, under "What to Plot" select "View". It's at this point MEP crashes.
If you look closely under the error message you can see the drop down for selecting the camera showed up but it really does not matter since MEP is crashing.

Thanks for the additional information. I was also able to duplicate this crash and filed a report with the development team to have them look into this issue.

F.Y.I.
I downloaded the 2016 Beta and this crash occurs in it as well.
