Re: Deleting general table crashes drawing
Glenn Schroeder Mar 13, 2018 9:09 AM (in response to Jeremy Rodríguez)I haven't heard of that particular issue, but I've also had weird crashes that no one else could duplicate. Can you just hide the table instead of deleting it? Or if that doesn't work you may just need to move it off the sheet?
And while I'm typing it occurred to me: Did this just start? And if yes, have you re-booted your computer and tried again (and I mean a complete restart of your computer, not just closing SW down and reopening it).

Re: Deleting general table crashes drawing
Jeremy Rodríguez Mar 13, 2018 10:17 AM (in response to Glenn Schroeder)For some reason, hiding the table wasn't working either. As for moving it off the sheet, company standard wouldn't allow it sadly, it would be an easy fix.
The problem has occurred once before on this same drawing actually. The workaround last time was to just copy the sheets to a new drawing and rename it. Clunky, but it made it able to be edited as necessary, even if it was just a Band-Aid for the problem.
I had rebooted the program, then the entire computer hoping it was just another one of those "well, it's just solidworks being bitchy" moments. Apparently it's quite consistently bitchy on this one, and I really don't feel like having to continually copy the (now 16) sheets over to a new drawing every time this gets a revision bump and requires changes.
Sorry for ranting, just irritated by it. Thanks for the suggestions.

Alex Lachance Mar 13, 2018 10:26 AM (in response to Jeremy Rodríguez)Try this, move the table to another sheet and then delete that other sheet. Sometimes little work arounds like this works wonders.
What version are you working on?
Is it a part drawing or an assembly drawing?
Could the table be linked to the design table of the part? Perhaps when trying to delete the line it tries to access the design table and can't?
Do you have messages marked as ''Do not show again''? I do not use this but I have a few collegues who do use the Do not show again box and for some reason when the ''Do not show again'' box is checked for the ''Do you really want to delete the following item'' message, it causes some crashes. The message about an assembly/part requiring a rebuild is also one that has caused some problems for us.

Jeremy Rodríguez Mar 13, 2018 1:54 PM (in response to Alex Lachance)Attempted, still a no go.
As for the tables, they aren't linked to a design table. It's just a general table outlining style differences (the company has strange ways of going about things).
As for "do not show" boxes, where would I go to double-check what I do and do not have checked on those?
