Subassembly composer: loop coding problem

Hello,

I am having an issue when using loop geometry for benching. I get geometry right and the surface is created properly, but I want to add a specific code to the end of the loop. When I add the loop, however, the code changes and I am uncertain how the loop is choosing the code to replace the ones set on the link.

This is the bench without the loop:

NoLoop.png

And this is the bench when I add the loop:

Loop.png

Point P19 simply shows a different code for no apparent reason and I have no idea what logic it uses to pick one from my other codes. Does anybody know why and/or how it can be fixed?

Not sure why it doesn't behave to begin with but a workaround... After L24 add another point/link with deltax=0 and deltay=0 with no point codes on that point. Add that no length link to your loop geometry. The loop geometry will ignore the point code associated with the last link (now the zero length no point code link) and use your P19 point code since that is no longer the last link.

The new point with no code still shows the "ghost code" in SAC, but your workaround did work. Thank you!
