I recently switch companies and am still working out setting up my profile. I am using SW 2016, SP 4.0 (previous company was SP 3.0).
One thing that I am noticing that I didn't at my previous company, is that when I select a component in the graphics view (usually just a face of the component), and then hover over the design tree and use my mouse wheel to scroll up or down (looking for a second component to select), it will zoom in and out the graphics window instead of scrolling the design tree. One thing that I find odd about it, is that it only does it on some assemblies, but not all of them. To my knowledge, all the assemblies I have used are created the same. I have also created two independent assemblies (using the same assembly templates) where one has this problem while the other does not. And it does not seem to matter what size the assembly is. It happens to both large and small assemblies.
Any thoughts?
Thanks,
David
OK, so I think I have finally figured it out.
Here is what I did:
I reset the registry per the suggestion of my VAR, opened up my test assembly that I have been using, and everything works like it should. I then closed out of SW, restored my user settings, and opened the test assembly. Everything works as it should again. I then used the feature "make assembly from part/assembly", and it is back to its old ways of not working correctly (not sure why it started to work correctly when I opened my test assembly; it wasn't before).
So I started over. Reset the registry and opened the test file, and everything works. Made an assembly with the test assembly in it (using the default assembly template), everything still works just fine. I then went into my system options, and re-pointed the default file location of the assembly template to our templates. I then created an assembly with my old template, and the error is happening again. So at this point, it appears that the assembly template is corrupt and it would probably be easier to recreate it than trying to trouble shoot it more.
