When trying to slice a tube, using a pane, the slice is about 45 degrees different from the angle of the slicing pane. I have included the MOI file for an example. This may be a bug.

Hi alteschinken, there are 2 objects at the cutting location, one is a rectangle curve (this one):



And the other is a plane surface:



You'll get different results if you select the either the curve or the surface as the cutting object, because planar curves will make a cut by extruding out a cutting volume like this:



If you select the plane as the cutting object and not the curve it should work as you wanted.

Please let me know if you're still seeing a problem there.

Attached is a file which opens fine. However, when I select the tallest object, and try to MOVE it, it will crash every time.

Hi alteschinken, what operating system are you running on?

Is there a crash dump file being generated?

I don't seem to be able to reproduce the crash over here.

Thanks,

If you drag to select then move it does crash but if you just click and move the tall object it does not crash.

There are a lot of extra geometry that are not part of the solid that may be causing the issue:

Hi Charlie, do you get a crash dump file created?

- Michael

Ok, the crash is specific to new style Macs with the M1/M2 arm64 CPU. It's from a difference in behavior from Intel with how division by zero is handled. I'll have a fix for the next beta shortly.

Thanks, - Michael

New v5 beta at https://moi3d.com/beta.htm should fix this crash.

Thanks, - Michael

The Nov beta does fix the crash issue.

alteschinken: Your file has some weird anomalies in it. Not sure how you ended up with the geometry in the red circle, but you cannot select them.

There was a curve mirroring bug accidentally introduced in the Nov-29 v5 beta released yesterday.

So if you got that one please throw it out and get a new Nov-30 v5 beta instead at https://moi3d.com/beta.htm .

Thanks, - Michael

Wow! Michael, can you upload the new Nov-30 v5 beta to the Download section for OTOY subscribers?

Hi Moi3dFan,

Yes I'll send it to them.

There was another bug where objects that were hidden when initially loaded would get stuck in a wireframe display.

So there's another update and the current one is a Dec-1beta.
