Crazy Gumball Alignement


Hi!
Has anyone else encountered this problem? The command line goes completely haywire when aligning Gumball. It stops after 20 to 30 seconds.
Thank you !

Thank you !

Hi Fabrice -

Thanks.

Is this something that you can reproduce in a new file with a simple object, or is this file-specific?
If you could provide more information about the steps that we need to take to attempt to reproduce this, that would be very helpful.

Hello, I’m sorry, but I can’t reproduce the problem. It involved a specific file, not a new, empty one. However, the problem hasn’t recurred. If it happens again, I’ll provide more details.

Thank you!
