| 23:20.14 | des_ | anyone on? |
| 23:21.45 | archivist | yes but |
| 23:21.52 | brlcad | howdy |
| 23:21.57 | des_ | evening. |
| 23:22.24 | des_ | I am having the strangest problem with mged. |
| 23:23.03 | des_ | I have a very simple model - a box made of five separate panels (no bottom), one of which has a cutout and a door. |
| 23:23.39 | des_ | when I try to combine these panels into a region or comb or group, mged goes nuts and adds five copies of each item to the group... |
| 23:23.55 | des_ | I must have done a stupid newbie mistake, but there you are... |
| 23:24.40 | des_ | I'd cut'n'paste from the command window, but it's rather long. |
| 23:24.46 | des_ | anyone have any idea what I'm doing wrong? |
| 23:26.34 | brlcad | hmm |
| 23:26.41 | brlcad | how long is long? |
| 23:26.48 | des_ | 30-odd lines. |
| 23:26.55 | brlcad | eep |
| 23:27.04 | brlcad | http://pastebin.com/ |
| 23:27.12 | brlcad | paste it there |
| 23:28.24 | des_ | http://pastebin.com/298102 |
| 23:29.21 | des_ | reload, I added 'l panel.front; |
| 23:29.27 | des_ | 'l panel.front' even. |
| 23:30.00 | brlcad | add an l panel.back |
| 23:30.31 | des_ | reload |
| 23:30.36 | brlcad | I've never seen g do that.. hrm |
| 23:31.38 | des_ | same thing happens with r and comb |
| 23:32.02 | brlcad | can you add another ls -la |
| 23:33.01 | des_ | done. I also redid panels as a region. |
| 23:33.52 | brlcad | has mged crashed on you at any point? |
| 23:33.57 | des_ | no. |
| 23:34.24 | brlcad | those messages from kill panels sounds like part of the problem |
| 23:34.43 | brlcad | if you kill panels again, and do a 'db get panels' what does it report? |
| 23:35.12 | des_ | I'm starting to wonder if I've tripped some kind of secret "do everything five times" command :-) |
| 23:35.46 | des_ | for instance: |
| 23:35.51 | brlcad | heh, no, but you might have _somehow_ corrupted your database or found some other obscure bug |
| 23:35.54 | des_ | mged> make foo rpp |
| 23:35.54 | des_ | foo: already exists |
| 23:36.06 | des_ | (but there was no foo) |
| 23:36.25 | brlcad | if you 'db get foo' it returns nothing? |
| 23:36.43 | des_ | mged> db get foo |
| 23:36.43 | des_ | foo: not found |
| 23:36.43 | des_ | mged> make foo rpp |
| 23:36.43 | des_ | foo: already exists |
| 23:36.52 | des_ | mged> kill foo |
| 23:36.52 | des_ | db_lookup(foo) failed: foo does not exist |
| 23:36.56 | des_ | wheee! |
| 23:37.01 | brlcad | arf |
| 23:37.05 | brlcad | can you send me that .g? |
| 23:37.10 | des_ | yep. |
| 23:38.01 | des_ | if my firewall will allow it. |
| 23:39.08 | brlcad | e-mail? |
| 23:40.40 | des_ | yep. addy? |
| 23:40.54 | brlcad | sent via pm |
| 23:45.50 | des_ | made with brlcad 7.2.4, btw. |
| 23:46.11 | des_ | and another thing: it doesn't save font settings to .mgedrc. |
| 23:46.32 | des_ | is that a known issue? |
| 23:46.52 | brlcad | yes, it is |
| 23:47.04 | des_ | fixed in 7.2.6? |
| 23:47.11 | brlcad | you can still set the fonts in your .mgedrc manually |
| 23:47.26 | des_ | yep. |
| 23:47.52 | brlcad | it's not beed looked at by anyone really afaik |
| 23:48.07 | brlcad | there's actually quite a bit that's not persisted in the .mgedrc |
| 23:48.22 | brlcad | mostly only the settings on the misc/modes menus |
| 23:48.51 | brlcad | hmm.. try this and let me know if it works: |
| 23:49.14 | brlcad | keep test.g door.flap panels |
| 23:49.21 | brlcad | opendb test.g |
| 23:49.27 | brlcad | kill panels |
| 23:49.47 | brlcad | r panels u panel.left u panel.right u panel.back u panel.top u panel.front |
| 23:49.49 | brlcad | l panels |
| 23:49.57 | des_ | yep. |
| 23:50.00 | brlcad | paste the l panels output |
| 23:50.02 | des_ | no udplicates. |
| 23:50.08 | des_ | ged> l panels |
| 23:50.08 | des_ | panels: REGION id=1000 (air=0, los=100, GIFTmater=1) -- |
| 23:50.08 | des_ | <PROTECTED> |
| 23:50.08 | des_ | <PROTECTED> |
| 23:50.08 | des_ | <PROTECTED> |
| 23:50.09 | des_ | <PROTECTED> |
| 23:50.11 | des_ | <PROTECTED> |
| 23:50.17 | brlcad | good... |
| 23:50.37 | des_ | bug or pilot error? |
| 23:50.54 | brlcad | not sure yet |
| 23:51.06 | brlcad | sounding like a bug, but no idea how it might have been caused |
| 23:51.25 | brlcad | basically it sounds like there's a slight corruption in the .g |
| 23:51.59 | brlcad | so slight that it hasn't tripped any of the corruption detections (which is something very hard to do) |
| 23:52.39 | des_ | hm. |
| 23:52.43 | des_ | ever heard of sudoku? |
| 23:52.58 | brlcad | have not |
| 23:53.17 | des_ | it's a silly little numbers puzzle you find in newspapers and stuff. |
| 23:53.22 | des_ | I've written a solver for it. |
| 23:53.43 | des_ | I spent most of yesterday evening trying to figure out why it tripped an assertion |
| 23:53.50 | des_ | poring over debugging printouts line by line... |
| 23:53.55 | brlcad | heh :) |
| 23:54.06 | brlcad | hmm.. the file you sent me works here just fine too... |
| 23:54.08 | des_ | and finally figuring out that I had mistyped the problem. |
| 23:54.14 | brlcad | that must mean it's something internal to your mged instance |
| 23:54.33 | des_ | so sometimes a complicated problem can have a simple explanation :) |
| 23:54.39 | brlcad | if you restart mged on the original .g and kill panels, and recreate, does it still happen? |
| 23:54.55 | des_ | yes, I've done that several times already... |
| 23:55.35 | des_ | does mged have some sort of logging functionality? |
| 23:55.46 | des_ | I mean, can it keep a log of the command window? |
| 23:56.38 | des_ | it might be useful in the future if I trip over this (or something similar) again |
| 23:57.05 | brlcad | there's a means to save the commands themselves to a file, but that won't keep their output |
| 23:57.15 | des_ | hm. |
| 23:57.21 | brlcad | there's a means to capture all the output, but you have to invoke mged differently |
| 23:57.54 | des_ | maybe I'll go dive into the source code and figure out how to keep a running log... |
| 23:58.35 | des_ | hmm, I really should try to set up a second monitor |
| 23:58.46 | des_ | one for the command window, one for the graphics window... |
| 23:58.59 | brlcad | it would be a relatively simple addition to make to the command that saves the command history |
| 23:59.03 | des_ | but most of all, I should really go to bed. It's 2 am over here in .no. |
| 23:59.42 | des_ | thank you very much for your help. |
| 23:59.47 | brlcad | no problem |
| 23:59.52 | brlcad | if you do want to save a log: |
