3 hour work lost due to hatch!

[Juan_Gallo]

Hatched area, clicked on cross style, thanks to default scale 1,0 my whole project is not responding now and i forgot to save. It is still running, is there any way to recover?

Why it is not thought to escape command with esc ? This is problem almost everytime causing huge problems. Hatching is not possible when default settings freeze your computer each time.

Hi Juan -

@Juan_Gallo

Hatched area, clicked on cross style, thanks to default scale 1,0 my whole project is not responding now and i forgot to save.

We are in the process of revisiting that issue:

Rhino Pdf in Rhino 7 makes enormous files

Good point. We used to cap out the lines generated for a hatch to 160,000 so the rest of the hatch would not be drawn after that point. This would happen when someone had a very small scale on a hatch compared to the world size of geometry being used. We removed this cap in V7, but are in the process of reinstating one since other issues like this have come about.

This is problem almost everytime causing huge problems.

Save more often (no really just get in and habit of hitting ctrl+s often or turn on auto save). Never rely on any software to save you no matter how “good” the recovery save situation is. 3 hours is way too long of work time to go without a save.

I’m afraid not, no. But if you haven’t turned off the autosave feature, there should be a somewhat recent version on your disk.

We are in the process of revisiting that issue:

Just an update on that: the issue has been resolved and the fix is in Rhino 7.3. A public release candidate should be available next week.
