Entire model disappeared after editing block

Rhino Rhino for Mac
1

I edited a block and when I exited the block manager the entirety of my model disappeared (except for the object I had tried to add to the block). The history of all of my actions is still there and so are the layers. The file size has also not changed. However even after entering ‘show’ and ‘unlock’, no objects can be found in the model. Unfortunately I have no old versions of the file but I have spent about 8 solid hours working on it and can’t afford to redo it! The audit report says this:

If you have not closed the file, please Undo and see what turns up.

I have tried undo and while it appears to undo actions, no objects appear

4

Can I send you my file or share my screen?

5

Yes - please UndoMultiple first, just in case that helps recover the model - also, before you save, locate and open the 3dmbak file of the same name in that file’s folder and save that to a new name - this may help recover your stuff as well.

SaveSmall, Zip and send to tech@mcneel.com. with a link back to this topic, please. If it is very large, upload to www.rhino3d.com/upload.

I’m afraid there is no 3dmbak file in that folder, how can I find this?

Hello - sorry - I just realized we’re on a mac here. If you go back in file versions, you should be able to revert to a previous version.

-Pascal

8

Okay sure, how do I go back in file versions?

9

Nevermind sorry I got it - that’s amazing, I didn’t realise that feature existed! Thank you!

RH-57400 is fixed in the latest WIP

Just had this same problem on Mac Version 10.14.6 Rhino v6 (6.30.20288.16412, 2020-10-14). Unfortunately I saved and quit, and am not seeing any previous versions.

15

I’m having the same problem. And when I went to try and restore past versions my Mac froze up. I’m currently waiting in horror at the possibility of losing all my work. Does anyone have any advice on what I can do?

16

This is still a problem and restoring to previous version didn’t work. Is there a solution to this and how do I create a separate back up file on Mac?

17

Hello - can you please run the SystemInfo command in Rhino and copy/paste the results here?

-Pascal

18

Same issue here. I edited a block and entire model deleted after.
I have tried undo multiple and does not work.

Hi -

Please run the Rhino SystemInfo command and copy-paste the result here.
Can you reliably reproduce that issue in a new file?

Hi,
I just had the same issue. Edited a block and then entire model went missing. The model is still 147MB so the objects should still be saved in the file.
I have a backup one hour ago but it still wasted me around 2 hours.
Let me know if you want my file to look into it.

Any solution here? Same issue just happened on a late stage model with a ton of work.

23

Any solution yet???
I can’t lose this model!
In the audit, all of the objects, etc. are still in the file, I just can’t see anything beyond what was in the block I was working in. And I made the mistake of saving the file with a new name, hoping I’d get an autosave or something, so I can’t revert.
