Cage edit fails at some point on even a simple subd. Just create a subd box, get a cage edit session goign with it, after about 4 or 5 push and pulls of cage points it just fails to affect the captive subd. It behaves as if it has been removed from the control cage.
There are many other funky things happening here…
trying to reattach the control cage completely messes up the object to be controlled, does not control as predicted.
I just left a cage edit session in the background, it was working fine when I left. Now I’ve just come back to it hours later and the cage no longer affects the controlled object.
I will try this test again in a new file and in v7 to see if similar behavior.
possibly related to symmetry on the subd. Grab a set of control cage points on one side, expecting it to edit one side of the object and thus mirror over, but it doesn’t it and breaks the cageedit session.
Glad this isn’t just me, and actually a wider bug, although very annoying. I’m having the same problem, very frustrating as the cage edit fails with SubD only after 3-4 pulls of points/operations. Many times it fails after the first transformation of the cage with a rhino 8 warning window popping up, notifiying me that ‘Dragging has released 1 object from the cage’.
I’m not sure this is the bug they are talking about, but if I create a cage around a subd, turn off the cage points, and turn them back on, the subd has escaped.

Re your last post: I’m doing exactly what you are doing in your video. Maybe you’re running a newer version of Rhino?
Maybe this is another clue? In this video, I’ve created a nurbs sphere and a subd sphere. I have created a 4x4x4 cage around both and turned points off. Then I Alt-dragged the controls with the gumball twice. So it looks like there is still some history between the subd cage and the subd, but it’s weirdly off.
Hello,
I have an issue when i try to deform a subd with cage edit. (SR 4 and 5)
At the first deformation, i have “Rhino 8 Cage Edit Warning : Dragging released 1 From Object from its cage” then i can deform. ( i select only control points)
If i Ctrl-z, i can’t deform anymore with control points
If i deform then Echap > CageEdit, my subd is deform twice…
If i deform then Echap > PointsOn, nothing happen when i deform…
CageEdit works well with solid…
I reinstall SR1 and it works well (but there is a bug with SubDCrease and SubdOffset, thank you for that fix in SR4)
Thanks for the additional info and the file, I was able to reproduce this. It looks like the bug is fixed in an internal build of 8.6 already and I’m asking the dev to commit it in 8.5 as well prior to that service release which will be soon.
