New Bug in 2019?

Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this.

Create a grading group, then do your grading. Go to the Grading Volume Tools. Use the Auto-balance option.

Used to, it would show you the adjustment it made. Now, it doesn't...

It does the adjustment, but it doesn't list it anymore. I have to do a cut/fill report to get the new volume.

I really liked the fact that it USED to tell me how much it adjusted my area in the Description.

I've seen that. If you close the Grading Volume Tools and then go right back in, the new values will be displayed.

I found a weirdness when using folders in the surface collection, even if the target surface is in the main collection. Maybe related?

No folders, and only an existing and proposed surface reside in the file.

See attached...

I'm not sure what to advise. I tried it with your drawing. If I use the grading balance, the volumes display does not immediately update. If I close the volume tool and go right back into it, the volumes display has updated. That's using your Detention Pong grading group. 

 

2019.2 Update.

Ok, I see what you're talking about now. It does show the updated volumes. However, it used to keep the history, and in the description said how much it raised/lowered the pond. Now it doesn't.

I noticed this earlier in the week when I was doing just as you did - didn't have time to investigate further

Hey @ToddRogers-WPM,

 

I was able to reproduce this on my end in 2019. It was working fine in previous versions. I've passed it alone to development for them to take a look at it.

 

Thanks for reporting it!

I am so looking forward to all the newly introduced bugs in 2020 to the things that worked in 2019

YES, this is happening in all our student labs at my College.  Driving us nuts !

Students need to see the the auto-balance movement and updated volumes.

 

As a side note:  it does not do this on on my workstation install (which is running on Windows 10 Pro).
