Bevel tool goes ka-BLOOEY!
Hiya.
Anyone else have it where Silo suddenly decides to throw a Bevel out into the farther reaches of the UI-universe? For no reason? Permanently? A few Silo sessions ago (weeks ago), I went to use the Bevel tool and it tossed out the edges into never-never land....so far that even hitting "Frame All" couldn't fit it into screen. Trying to reduce it the normal way (click/drag on the Bevel 'center point' in the workspace) is futile. Looking at the Object Properties shows X/Y/Z locations so far out there it has to use exponential notation (e.g., "5.427e+0.12m"). I suspect it could be a world/grid and measuring unit kerfluffle, but I don't want to go poking around messing everything up to what I need when making my models...then again, this could be one of those long-standing Silo bugs that will likely never get squashed. If it's both...then I need to re-adjust my working scale for all my models. This would suck. This would suck a lot as I need a standard size for a multitude of projects...which, btw, is Units: Metric Unit Scale: 100 Working Grid Width: 10m Work Grid Spacing: 0.1m Work Grid Heavy Step: 10 Anyone else have this wacky problem? __________________

Haven't been here in a while or I would have replied sooner.
Yes, I ran into this problem once before. The only way I could get around it was to first undo the operation. Then I exported the objects into a separate obj. file, created a new Silo file and imported the saved .obj contents into it. This is not an ideal solution, especially for large files. At the time it was the only thing I could to work. I haven't run into the problem since then. However, other similar issues have cropped up with other solutions being less drastic. __________________
