    Hi Colin,

    There are plenty on this forum who can help diagnose the issue, but it will require posting a link to a public document. See the stickied forum post checklist for more info.

    Works for me - I will have to wait to see the example.

    Mine did it too, but then i updated again to the latest version before even opening the feature., and the latest version fixed it again.  What ever it was it seemed to be on only one part studio. Hard to tell...

    I delete the part studio and made a new one for the custom profile and it worked fine
    thank you john for the idea :)

    I didn't delete anything..  :o

    I have another feature that is showing it is broke.
    I'll take a closer look this time

    Well, It isn't letting me edit anyways.  The profile is at least still being created, (it's the green extruded aluminum)
    Nothing is showing up in the debug window.
    Nothing much showing in mouseover tooltip


    It looks like it is on V7


    Updating to V8 fixes whatever happened.


    I believe it was a different profile that broke last time too. On V6 and was fixed by updating to V7

    Edit:
    I just did a selective update on this feature going back one version at a time, it breaks only on V7 it looks like.
    I'll test other profiles and see if I can find the other one that broke.

    @john_mcclary I have to hold my hands up - you'll see the time difference between V6 and V7 is an hour. The moment I versioned the doc at V6, I realised I hadn't checked the new part naming code with custom profiles - hence V7. Really sorry for the inconvenience.

    @colin_manson - I found the cause for the NaN - profiles must be created on the top plane with Z pointing normal to the sketch. If you sketch on any other plane it will NaN. In the next release I will create a more meaningful error message. Sorry for the inconvenience.

    Well v6 is working fine though. :)

    and v7 is working fine in other part studios in the same document.
    Every profile on v7 in that part studio is showing the error. Even one that is literally just a circle.
    I'm just trying to give you some debug insight in case there is a deeper problem.

    I have no idea what that could be. I'm pretty sure I didn't touch any significant code.

    It must be something deeper.

    I added a new beam feature to the bottom of the tree, and it was fine in every version.
    now those other features that were breaking are stable in every previous version, including 7...

    It appears adding another feature to the tree was enough to fix the entire part studio...

    So, it does not appear to be only Beams that is the problem, because this happened each time you updated in the last day or so.

    But at the same time, no other custom feature had any problems. (well they were not updated in the last day either..)

    I don't have any other FSs that use document linking like beam profiles to test though

    OK keep me informed if it happens again.
