Problem with Copy to Sheet/ALL when effects are on

Shessar

CC3+ crashes to desktop when doing a Copy to Sheet>>ALL when the effects are on. Works fine with effects off.

I don't seem to be able to replicate this. Does it happen regardless of map?

I can't do it either.

How big is your map, Shessar?

Shessar

Good question. No.

I just tried it on a few maps and it always happens on the last three town maps that I just submitted and the atlas world map that I've been working on, but no other map that I've tried so far.


Malva map with effects on:
-Select Vegetation Sheet and hide everything else
-Choose Copy to Sheet>>ALL
-Choose any other sheet to copy to
-Do it

I crash every time unless I turn off effects.

Testing more, it does it for some maps and not others.

Number of entities does not seem relevant. Crashed on five as well as 1300.

Vector or raster does not seem relevant. Crashes on both.

Version of CC3+ that map was created under does not seem relevant.

Using a selection box rather than the ALL condition DOES NOT cause a crash.

Further testing, Move to Sheet>>ALL crashes under the same conditions.


If no one else is having this issue I'll just do a repair install and hope for the best.

Seems to be more than just you, I can replicate it on your Malva map.

Looks like there are some entities that don't like to be copied.

The workaround here is when you do a COPYSHT operation, use the following select criteria:
A(ll) N(not) #(Entity Tag) 0

This will ensure that you select everything that don't have an entity tag id of 0 (special entities)

Thanks Remy! I was just coming back to say that it looked like it was being caused by some effect entity(s).

Your work around works great as does using a bounding box to select everything visible.
