Wall length in Property panel gives a error

[bitacovir]

Some time ago, I was working with a file of a house project. I made some walls but now I can't change their Length in their Property panel.
They give me this error:

Code: Select all

Exception (Fri May  3 22:37:11 2019): Sketch::checkGeoId. GeoId index out range.  
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Program Files\FreeCAD 0.18\Mod\Arch\ArchWall.py", line 724, in onChanged
    obj.Base.movePoint(0,2,p2,0)
<class 'Base.FreeCADError'>: Sketch::checkGeoId. GeoId index out range.

I put one of these walls in an independent file to upload here as an example.

Haven't tried to use length for wall...

Seem you have a wall with base sketch... and length would not be functioning properly.... sketch enter edit mode and exit, then edit length again, no more error but the wall length just seem go random.


Tried add a wall using parameter only, then there should be no base sketch / draft wire - then you can control the wall length by that attribute

Sorry. I forgot to mention that I used the tool Arch Wall to create these walls. The tool works fine, but I do not know how it looks like at some moment these walls got corrupt.

I think there is no problem of using Arch Wall tool.

Just if it was built base on a Wire, Sketch etc, the Length Property should be ignored... but it create some random problem when someone input some figure there.

Hmm there seems to be some circular thing happening there, the wall detects somehow that the Length property has changed, and tries to update the underlying object... That should obviously not happen. Will have a better look.

Indeed if there is some problem calculating the length, it is set to zero and when the length is zero no change is done to underlying objects, that's what happens now - or, should happen...

Hmm there seems to be some circular thing happening there (...)

I thought some thing like that. Maybe a bad practice in my workflow. This is the original file for any help.

In git commit b50ac8606 I experimented a fix for this problem... Let's see if that works well

Good work Yorik. I will test it as soon as available the last version.

Hi Yorik.
I tested in the last FreeCAD version the wall's Lenght Property and I found that it gives an error.
1)Create a wall in Arch WB
2)Save the file and close it
3)Open the file and change the Lenght Property of the wall. It gives an error.
Here there is an animation:
