Frameline Manager is not working with RH profiles #13

Closed cvgaviao closed 5 years ago

cvgaviao commented 6 years ago

I added a RH section profile and then opened the Frameline Manager tool. I choose the RH profile and then the path and clicked in the "Redraw" button. The structure objects are being created but I can't see them.

I'm adding a project showing the issue: failureFrame.zip

@oddtopus, could you please give me a feedback?

@cvgaviao , the reason is that the Arch function that it's used to create the square tubes profiles makes an inconsistent geometry. Practically the profile is generated by the subtraction of 2 rectangles, but the bigger is subtracted from the smaller, I guess. Unfortunately this happened also for other profiles in the past. The only workaround I have up to now is to delete the Section_RH.csv table and use a self-made profile , using the dialog of frameBranch.
