Still the same old G_L length error in FG members with a double end trim!

It's hard to believe this error still exists in 2016! Guess I'll have to pull out the old FG_LENGTH_FIX macro to deal with it an each FG member. #PITA

Do you have 2016 SP1/R2 loaded?  

it addresses something in "frame Generator" but not that explicitly 

 From the Readme for SP1/R2

70917 Inventor unexpectedly exits when a keyboard entry is used to choose frame size during frame creation.

Hi Donovan.

Yes, R2 installed. I'm able to run the FG_Precise-Length macro to fix the problem.

Which reminds me I must update my signature file

Do your parts have multiple end treatments?  Like a trim and a notch?  I've found that I get this error if I have both, and do the notch first.  Our rule of thumb is, trim first... always, then notch.  If this isn't it.... then I don't have a clue.

Hi Chris. Thanks for the input.

I'm aware of the tweak acheived by doing operations in an order. In this case the end treatments on the problem member are all trims. 2 on 1 end and 1 on the other and the order doesn't make any difference.
