                Getting tired of seeing this, SharkCAD 10 Pro P.C.
Now when I do anything I Export as SharkCAD Version 9, and also 
as a .sat file, just so I can open it again.
Importing the file sometimes works.
I'm now going to use Version 9 all the time, Version 11 is
CRAP and not useable, Version 10 is going downhill and no support.

                Hi Larry, I feel Your pain, I heard it happens when the software crashes and You restart PC after that. Always reopening the file is required after software crashes.

                Undos are probably the most common reason for corrupting a model additionally unnoticed until the next file open. Saving periodically to a dedicated file e.g. by adding a serial number "xyz.01.sfx" etc. and using these documents if a former revision of the model is required instead of using the undo function is recommendable.

You have 100% right!!! After 6 years with SharkCad I'm afraid of three things: Undo, Links, MTS :-)

                I think another problem is that I GROUP and UNGROUP assemblies to edit parts. If I lasso an assembly that I UNGROUPED, and then GROUP, works fine. If I SELECT ALL and GROUP, Shark crashes.

Hi Larry,
grouping is another never ending topic. I abandoned this function many years ago when I so this action makes a lot of tools doesn't work correctly. I prefer to group object using layers - for example put the whole assembly I want to group on one layer and that's all. I can select all, move all, rotate and make all group invisible just clicking the layer instead of group it... about dozen bugs less.
