Part Positioning Lockup

[Ty Weaver]

Has anyone else encountered a problem with SD where the part positioning options (mate, align, etc) grey out when you try to position a part. This has happened to me several times when I go to move a part. I select the part, my positioning options come up but they are not usable because they are greyed out. The only way to fix it is to exit and restart SD. Anyone have any better suggestions? Has this happened to you?

What SolidDesigner version are you using? <BR>On which platform (NT, HP-UX)? <BR>Can you create a reproducible sequence which leads to the problem?

Unix 10.2 HP C200 SD 6.0 No, I cannot create a reproducible sequence it just randomly appears.

Ty, we have run across similar problems with option boxes graying out. I have found that it happens when I have had Solid running for some time and working on a complex model. Restarting works for us too. I think that the CPU just gets overloaded. Luckly this is a very intermitint problem and I have not seen it since we upgraded to 6.0
