I accidentally saved a drawing with block editor open,Now when i open the drawing i cannot close the blockeditor without my complete drawing disappearing,I am assuming it’s something to do with the display rather than the geometry,as the blocks are still there
Latest V6 version
Phew!!!
Sorted it out by saving without plug in data…
Hello - try opening the drawing and run Unlock. Does that help anything?
-Pascal
I tried that,I just saved without plugin data and i was ok,Quite worrying though,Thought i had lost todays work…
Hi Pascal,
It’s happened again.
Unlock doesn’t do anything
i tried saving without plug in that hasn’t worked either.
Hello - if you close the block editor and then Undo, does that get things back?
Can you tell me the exact steps to reproduce the problem?
@JohnM - should it be impossible to close a file with BlockEdit open?
-Pascal
Ahh sorry, All i did this time was exit the blockeditor.
I don’t know what i did previously i was in the zone.
I tried undo.
I ran audit,There are still blocks.
I am at home now,But will give you more info in the morning,UK BST 8:00
Just looking through things and it appears no autosaves have been happening since last update,Also no backup files either.
Both options are turned on in the options.
Any Help???
Hello - how are you determining this?
-Pascal
I looked in the folder and there are no autosaves after the 18th,I think that was when i updated.
I cycled the checkbox and they seem to be working again…
My major concern is this problem with the blockeditor wiping everything out,That put me back 8 hours today.
Still no backups though.
Hello - lets leave autosaves and .3dmbak files aside for another thread. I’d like to know how you get into the state where everything disappears - can you recreate that situation reliably and if so, how, exactly?
-Pascal
No i can’t like i said,I just closed the blockeditor.
Shall i send you the file?
Just happend to me also. Should I just accept days of work is gone? Was there ever any solution presented?
Hi -
Rhino 5 and early builds of Rhino 6 had a bug where the BlockEdit command would write bad data causing loss of data. The problem of writing such bad data was fixed in Rhino 6. It is not possible to prevent reading files with bad data and, as such, opening an old file in the latest Rhino 6 or WIP 7 will still lead to loss of data.

Has any solution ever been found for this?? It keeps happening to me and ruining tons of work (my autosave is also not working properly). Randomly I will close a block, and everything disappears (with the exception of hidden objects, oddly enough. Those still appear when I enter “show”). Working in Rhino 6, so it shouldn’t be related to problems the thread mentions about Rhino 5.
Hi Hannah -
Please run the Rhino SystemInfo command and copy-paste the result here.

Just lost my project - and my sanity
