Propagate button in Analyze Entity Not Working

[dfedwards]

I am trying to change the diameters of about 200 holes that are the same size from 0.44" to 0.42.I am trying to do this in analyze entity boxand trying to make the change propagate to all of the selected entities, but it will only change the current entity and I have to hit the next button and do each hole seperately. Is there any problems with the propagate button at the bottom of the dialogue box that anyone knows of? That is what that button is supposed to be used for right? I am using X3 MU1.

I'm not sure of the MC function but I use a chook to mass edit hole diameters. I can't remember if it's from AI Utilities or Verisurf.

 

I seem to recall having the same problem as you when using propagate, but I'm still using X2. When I found a way around it, I quit worrying about it.

After reading the help file it seems clear to me that the propogate button only works for level, color, line style, and line thickness.

Propagate

 

Applies attribute changes to all selected entities. (This button is only available when multiple entities are selected or when attributes are changed.)

I just checked. I use the Edit Arc Radius option in AI Utility for this.

Scott is correct, propogate is for attributes only. We have had some requests to allow for a geometric propogation as well, but not enough to push other changes aside.

Just downloaded and installed the AI Utilities, and it works great, Thanks for all of the input.
