I could swear it was working yesterday.

If I highlight the part in the feature tree, RMB, Copy With Mates, I get a blank dialog box asking me to select a part. So I select a part in the graphics area, its name shows up in the dialog box, I click OK, and ... the dialog box closes and nothing else happens.

ProcessExplorer shows 1.6Gb virtual size; it doesn't usually get squirrely until that's above 2.5Gb.

Maybe I'm holding my tongue wrong.

... and now, a little later, it's started working again, for no apparent reason, without rebooting, without changing anything on purpose.

Aaaarrrrggggghhhhhh.

Usually all you have to do is threaten SW by telling your machine that you are going to ask us, and it will fix itself.

How do you threaten SolidWorks, Do you write a comment in the Feature Manager or launch RX?

I'm still waiting for them to implement the FrigXpert can't find the Icon I made for it though. It would figure out an approach to fix a model problem then walk you through it or autofix with out endless popups that force you into using the convert to reference dim option to avoid overdefined sketch. To easily swap dimensions from Driven to Driving states more quickly you can leave the Options Tab click and select a new dim after un/checking the Driven box and you'll automatically be in the same Tab.

SW Still doesn't allow the Tabs in Manager to be accessed by hitting Tab key you'll notice it skips over it.[banghead]
