Elefront 5.1.2 Blocks are broken in macOS

Hi @elevelle and other Elefront devs,

There seems to be an issue in the 5.1.2 Elefront, at least on the macOS side, with blocks handling. The simplest setup I could find is the following :

I can deconstruct blocks and have a preview of transformations, but I can’t access any block property, nor bake them.

Here are the files :
Block Issue-Elefront.gh (12.8 KB)
Block Issue-Elefront.3dm (3.2 MB)

Sad day for working with blocks…

Baking and details seems to be working fine for me except I don’t use the rhino geo info and I’m using windows, not mac. Sorry if this doesn’t help.

Thanks for trying it. It seems it is a mac-related issue then…

Woops, it looks like the issue comes from the Extended Geometry component ; if I reference the block using one of the ref component, everything works as expected.

It looks like the Extended Geometry component internalize blocks automatically.

Hi, this is indeed an issue with the Extended Geometry component. It’s on the list, but I haven’t gotten to it yet. In the meantime, you can use a GUID component to reference objects and/or internalize them, and then pass the guid into the Extended Geometry component to have it reference the blocks.
