Wood species does not show up in summary

[Jim Grieco]

Hello,

I recently created a design with various woods. They show up correctly when in the Paint option but when I go to Summary, it just shows 1 wood. That has never happened before.

Hi Jim.
Would you post the project json file so we can see what you are seeing. Thanks

By any chance did you change the number of segments per row after you painted the design?

No I started with the correct number of segments. I may have changed from closed to open seg design. I cannot remember. Thx

Thanks Jim.
Importing worked, Will take a look.
I know changing number of segments messes up the summary. Not sure about going from closed to open.

The file you provided has it set as open 48 segment.

Weird.
Couple of things. This is the Bowl setting from your imported plan.
The base thickness is set at 1 inch? When I rotate your vessel the bottom is a hole.
You are correct that the summary sheet does not show all the species.
I believe there is 5 or 6 species limit. Do not know what happens if you go over that number of different species.

Have you tried to clear everything and start over to see if you get the same results? This may be one for Lloyd to look at.

Hi Jim
I am guessing you drew vessel profile. If you look at the cutaway there is no bottom disk in the cuttaway view. It looks like your last node (dot) is too far up from the base in the profile view.

 

[mfisher]

To fix this issue you should change the base thickness to .5 inches in the bowl setting windows. Move the last node down closer to the base line till you see a disk.

Mike,

Thanks for looking into this. I have no idea what happened. I did not draw this in. It is an existing plan and I changed the design (paint) a little. I was able to originally export out and everything showed correctly. However, I tend to delete columns I do not need and accidently deleted the column for the lengths of wood needed for each species for each row.
Today I went back to SP to export again and this happened.

The reason I asked about did you draw the profile is I have not encountered a profile that does not produce a bottom disk. The plan you linked had an issue with the bottom. Thanks for clarifying.

I just did a bowl plan with 9 species and the summary populated the segment totals properly.
Something happened to throw off the summary table, hole in the bottom instead of a disk.

Not sure what happened. I would start over.
Keep in mind when painting segments do not change segment numbers.
Looks like the save did not do well. f

Not sure what else I can tell you.

I think this has to do with changing the number of segments at some point.

If you reset the segments to default and then repaint, the Summary will be correct again.

Your bottom dot should be close to the bottom line at the diameter that you want the bottom disk to be. I don't see how this could cause the species count problem, but it is a problem, nonetheless.

Thank you Lloyd for the reply. I did not change the number of segments. I only changed to open segmented and raised the row height.

I do not know why this happened. The original *summary shows a disk. *I accidently deleted the column that shows the lengths of each species in each row. Which is why I wanted to reprint. This is when I noticed the problem.

I still have the same question - if you reset the segments and repaint, is the Summary correct? My guess is that it will be. Something happened to confuse the software and repainting it will fix it. The only thing that I know causes this is changing the number of segments.

I’ve already fixed this issue on a new release but I can’t release it until I finish the work on the other more difficult things I’m doing.

Lloyd - please clarify by what you mean by "resetting segments".
Resetting the paint so everything is one color?
Resetting from open to closed?
Resetting the height of the rows?

Thanks

Lloyd - I figured out what causes the summary to not show the species and the disappearance of the base; This happens when I change the height of the vessel. I forgot that I did this also.
So, my question now is: how do I change the height of the vessel (using an existing plan) without all this happening?
***I have already adjusted the bottom dot and got the base back but the summary still shows only one color.
Thanks

What Lloyd is suggesting is to within the Paint view to click on "reset segments".
That will clear all of painted segments and set the database back to one species.
You will have to repaint your design.

You should not need to reset the open/closed or the height of the rows.

What is critical in SP is to choose the number of segment per row you want before painting a design. One you begin to paint a design and if one changes the number of segments per row the program looses track of what segments to delete or add.

Thanks for the clarification
I realize everyone seems to think I changed the number of segments but I did not. This is an existing plan and all I did was change height of vessel, height of rows and closed to open.

Hi Jim
If you have a good profile you can increase or decrease the height of the vessel by changing the height number in the height box.
imo, it is better to set your vessel height, number of segments before painting.

It is changing the height of the vessel that is causing this. I checked after every step. I did not change segment count.
I changed from closed to open then checked summary. *This plan is already painted
I changed row height then checked summary
I then changed vessel height and the summary returned to one color.
I am currently starting from scratch so this conversation is just to gather information.

Thank you for your help
