Animation stuck on?

Using a Macbook Pro / Catalina

I decided to try the nightly build this morning...but when I started it up
the graphic display area was slowly rotating. I thought maybe that was just
some new look for strart up but would stop when I rendered something. But
it did not, my model just slowly rotates...I have never done any animation
in scad but I found the menu choice to 'animate' but it was
unchecked...checking and unchecking doesn't stop the rotation.
I looked around in the preference but didn't see anything that seemed like
it would help.

I moved back to my previous release candidate version and it rotates now
too.
I downloaded the latest RC6...nope still rotating.
I can't stop it (though it stops when scad looses screen focus)

I can't use scad like this, not only does it make viewing models difficult
but it so slows down my system as to
make it unusable.

Any suggestions...I have tried reboots and obviously reinstalled but it is
like something is stuck.

TIA
Darren

Re: Animation stuck on?

Disable all input device drivers

Edit->Preferences->Axes

or configure in a way that it's not triggering the
rotation.

ciao,
Torsten.

Darren:

Perhaps your pointing device is stuck, either physically or
programmatically. Have you tried unplugging/plugging your mouse/tablet
and/or re-booting? This has happened to me, although rarely.

Solution found...possible nightly build bug.

Logging in as a different user and launching RC version of scad demonstrated
that it was something specific to my regular account. Removing scad prefs
in my user account stopped the rotation (lost all my recents and color
setting but nothing critical.)

So I can only conclude that maybe the nightly build corrupted something in
my prefs.

I'm not sure this is a bug. Snap packages are encapsulated
by design which likely causes those links to point into
places that are not visible to the application packaged.

I need to check the documentation to find an official
statement about handling of links.

I suppose the OpenSCAD github repo would be the correct
place to report or request things.

ciao,
Torsten.

Re: Version 2021.01.17 (Snap) can't follow links

I interpreted that Peter was referring to something about symbolic links, but it could mean any number of other things, like the links to "include" or "use" files, or links from the Console or Error Log warnings to the original source lines...

A more detailed description of the problem would certainly help.

Re: Version 2021.01.17 (Snap) can't follow links

Well, Hans, you are right.

I mean symbolic links to folders that belong to me but are on other
partitions. The links were created in my $HOME like this one:

/home/peter#> ln -s /data/documents Documents

The attached picture shows the "Open File" dialog. Left of OpenSCAD
version 2019.05 (community) and right openscad-nightly 0 + git.2caad75
(snap).
The number of folders is lower on the right - all folders that should
be linked via a symbolic link are missing.

As an aside, links to the internet (help/documentation/etc.) work in
both versions.

Re: Version 2021.01.17 (Snap) can't follow links

A Snap application is sandboxed, and you can only access files in your home directory.

I have not found a way to override this behaviour, but if anyone else knows a workaround, please post.

I can't use the OpenSCAD snap due to this and other limitations.

However, the AppImage works just fine.
