Changing variable name in equation editor doesn't carry throughout

Post by RobbieOrvis »

Bug report for DSS on 9.3.5

Changing the variable name in the equation editor window doesn't necessarily carry through to the variable name in the sketch. Also, it is producing an error that usually comes up when different equations within a variable have different variable names.

Can you give more details here? Step by step instructions would really help as I don't really follow at all what the problem is.

Guessing this is a subscripted variable - so you'd have to change the name for every instance of elementwise equations?

I believe this has been a defect of the equation editor for some time, even in the old gui.
