Hi Micheal,

Unsure if this has been bugged before but getting a decent amount lot of selection issues as attached - surfaces highlight on other objects (but don't actualyy 'select' as it were), occasionally materials will also jump to random surfaces as the selection does (but don't actually change materials in the browser, just appear to on screen)

Seems that if I've had a step file import at some stage in the model it occurs more often?

Hi Rich,

I've never seen this and I frequently import STEP files.

It would help if you upload a .3dm where this problem is occurring.

Hi Rich, yes can you please post a .3dm file where you're seeing this?

I did get one similar bug report for materials jumping around and it turned out to be a buggy video driver.

What operating system are you running on?

- Michael

Ah I'm getting errors uploading and NDA anyway but good to know it might be a video issue, yes just interesting it always seems to pop up with the import of a step...Hopefully just disappears with next beta. If I cut/paste the moi native effected geo in again it clears the problem up if that's any lead

Hi Rich, the error on upload will happen if the file is too large, like more than 10Mb.

For large files you'll need to use a file sharing service like WeTransfer, Dropbox, OneDrive, etc... where you upload the file there and share a link to it. You can e-mail the link to me at moi@moi3d.com if you want to keep it private.

What operating system are you running on?

If you're on Windows it would probably be a good idea to update your video driver to the latest version from the video card vendor's web site.

Hey - sent you a link to file cheers!

Hi Michael,
the .fbx import is misisng on this version

Hi binfordboy, since FBX files contain polygon mesh data and not CAD data, you can write out to an FBX file but not import it in to MoI.

Some more info on that here:
https://moi3d.com/faq#Q:_Why_can_I_export_to_.obj_format.2C_but_cannot_read_.obj_format_into_MoI.3F

The exception to that is if you are doing a sub-d surface conversion. In that case the sub-d importer is on the side pane under SubD > Create > "From file". That can process .obj or .fbx files that contain sub-d control cages.
