Default Oops

One of the changes in 7.7.2 broke the VideoRecorder. When you try to record a video, you will get the following error in 7.7.2:

exception: Exception Caught in ObjectFunction272__project_library_VideoRecorder_b ehaviour_eventfunctions_GenRecording object: /Tools/VideoRecorder class: MAIN:/project/library/VideoRecorder

This error will be fixed in our next bug-fix release (7.7.4).

In the meantime, you can work around this error by executing the following script before opening the VideoRecorder window to record a video:

Code:
treenode videoRecView = node("VIEW:/standardviews/tools/VideoRecorder/VideoRecorder");
if (!objectexists(node(">variables/options", videoRecView))) {
	treenode errorText = node(">variables/errorText", videoRecView);
	treenode parent = up(errorText);
	transfernode(errorText, videoRecView);
	destroyobject(parent);
	rebindobjectattributes(videoRecView);
	transfernode(errorText, variables(videoRecView));
}

Default Divider in AStar

Hi,

in 7.7.2 with AStar Module 1.1.2 I can drag a divider to the 3D view but it´s not possible to drop it.
Is it only on my Hardware?

Hi Hemmi,

Using the divider with the AStar 1.1.2 module in Flexsim 7.7.2 works for me. Though not drag-drop, but clicking on the divider and then in the model window lets me draw the divider to the 3D view. The other AStar objects seem to behave the same way.

Axel
