Hi:


I've been studying the muscle bone examples at LW Hub (which are great, btw) and I've run into crashing in LW 7.5. The technique uses vmag in the expression modifier to adjust the zscale of a bone based on the position of
another object. The problem is that when I add the expression, I get
"Expression evaluation error, too few results generated"
and then sometimes Layout crashes. However, the expression works!


The work around I've found is to turn the expression modifier off when adjusting it, then turn it back on when the adjustments are finished. The crash even happens when I use the examples downloaded from lwhub.com.


If anyone knows if this is a bug or something that can be fixed, I'd appreciate it.


The tutorial is at

and the example can be downloaded at

Thanks.

I've been using the expression on their site quite heavily for a project I've been working on and it's pretty stable for me. I did all my expression testing on another scene (where I wouldn't care if it crashed) and then saved them to text files. I got a couple of crashes while setting them up, too, but since I got the expressions worked out right I haven't had any problems.
