Previous post should read "hangs when I try to change the text position in a cell"

 

It hangs when I try to add shading to a cell background also.

Dear @bcweweng,

 

Please uninstall the Windows Update.
It is a bug with admin rights on all folders

This was a critical update for windows.

 

When I try to uninstall the update with right click, there is no uninstall option.

 

I have tried a system restore but all restore points before this update are gone.

 

I did system restore to the update point but Report Designer still hangs.

 

This has cost more than a day trying to sort out and still not working.

 

Any help would be appreciated.

Please, uninstall for troubleshooting causes this update. When opening "Programs and Features" look at the top left section. Click there "View installed updates". Here you will find the installed updates and you are able to uninstall it via context menu (with local administrator permissions). 

 

Then test again. Does it still hang? If yes, then the cause is a different one and we will look for it. Otherwise I have to log this to our development department.

 

Please, let me know.

"Please, make a snapshot from the site which I mentioned before."? Not sure what you mean by this?

The freeze takes place in Report DESIGNER and happens precisely when I got to adjust a cell border within the "Property Grid" tool space, inside the "Appearance Section" precisely at the "Border" pulldown. I select the pulldown and select "none" and the change is made but immediately upon clicking on a new cell, the entire program freezes and must be closed with task manager.

 

This issue began in December, near the time of the anniversary update, likely right after. I have tried all proposed solutions, including making sure all of my software in the Design Suite Premium 2017 package is up to date and the issue persists exactly the same. I have tried compatibility mode for Report Creator, I have tried nixing DPI scaling, I have tried running as Admin, I have tried turning off user account control, and all combinations of the above. The issues persists exactly as before. I uninstalled Plant3d and reinstalled and ran all updates and service pack to no avail. 

 

Report Designer functions in some other aspects still, such as exporting to XLSX and changing font type, size, editing information in cells directly. This issue however makes Report Designer un-usable due to the the necessity of changing border types. attached screenshot shows in red where you must not click lest you risk a freeze.

 

Please respond with a solution for this problem.

Has there been a solutions posted for this issue?

I am still experiencing this issue in Plant 3D 2019. Every time i try to position a text field using the Property Grid the program hangs and i have to force quit, unsaved progress is lost. 

 

I hope someone can point me in the right direction, much appreciated.
