Hi Vladimir, thanks for posting that video, I can reproduce that here. It will happen if you generate a degenerate rectangle for the base of the box. MoI v3 would just exit the command in that case and I will tune up V4 to behave the same instead of generating a script error.

I also repeated this.

setCameraAndTarget()

does not work in V4 but in V3.

This script should set the cam to point 50,50,50 and the target to point 0,0,0

script: camPt=moi.VectorMath.createPoint(50,50,50);targetPt=moi.VectorMath.createPoint(0,0,0);moi.ui.getActiveViewport().reset();moi.ui.getActiveViewport().setCameraAndTarget(camPt,targetPt);

(copy script, in moi hit tab and paste, hit enter)

Hi Michael,

Have you thought about some kind of setting for MoI regarding available RAM to the app as a user setting?

So now with 64 bit, if i crank some model meshing parameters, MoI can quickly gobble up all my RAM.

With tge 32 bit version, i could max out MoI and the worst would be i lock up MoI abd have to force quit it...

With the new 64 bit version, i can lock up the entire system and it can be problematic.

So if i know i have 16 or 32 gigs of RAM, i could set MoI to know to use 12 or 30 gigs, type of thing....

Thanks.

Hi Ralf, re: setCameraAndTarget() in v4 , thanks for reporting this bug I've got it fixed up for the next beta.

I had not really thought about that, but it should not be too hard to add a moi.ini setting for that. Something like:

[Settings]
MaxProcessMemoryUseGB=12

- Michael

That would probably be a good setting to have....

Thanks again!

Hi Burr, that memory limit setting will be in the next beta. It will be for Windows only though, I can't seem to find a way to do it on Mac.

So righteous! Thanks!

Hi Michael.

Hi Vladimir, thanks for reporting these bugs.

I can repeat the command button staying stuck on, I should be able to fix that for the next beta.

I can't repeat the Text one though, so the problem is that you get 0 by default for those 2 values? EDIT: it was a locale dependent bug that's why it wasn't happening here.

Thanks, - Michael

---

Hi Vladimir, ok I see why I can't repeat the text one, it's because it was a locale dependent bug. This should be fixed now for the next beta, thanks!

Hi Michael. I'm late with the answer and still answer. This error arises from the first beta. If you remember I wrote to you about the script Rebuild so Maksim Smirnov checked it on Mac and Windows and it manifests itself only in Windows.
Vladimir.

Thanks Vladimir, now I finally understand about the Rebuild problem too - yes it's this same issue. Since the bug was triggered only if your operating system locale uses commas for the decimal separator it wasn't happening here and I thought you were talking about a different thing then.

It will be fixed for the next beta and should fix the default values for both Rebuild and Text commands and possibly others.

Hi,

I've try to import a Stp-file from Solid Works to Moi, but it's dosn't work.
The import process is stopped without a message and i get an empty scene.
The file is 192mb big. I try the newest build from Moi 4.0 beta Nov 27.
smaller files are imported witout problems.

The import to Rhino works fine.

Best regards
Jörg

Hi Michael,

Conrcerning the memory limit on Mac, there might be a hint there :

It's the "Answer" comment

Avast says its a virus and will get back to me

Hi Jörg,

re:

Is it possible for you to send me the file? With a file that large you'd need to use a file sharing service like dropbox or OneDrive and send me a link at moi@moi3d.com . There isn't much I can do without being able to test the file over here, I will keep any file you send me private and confidential.

Thanks, - Michael

I've also seen a lot of people saying that ulimit is not working as it's supposed to on Mac as well though. I guess I can give it a try though.

Sorry I'm not familiar with Avast so I don't know what you do specifically but usually there is some way in the Anti-Virus program's UI to allow overrides to enable specific programs to run.
