[fixed] bug with select-by-short-edges - rv3 - 06-25-2018
I'm having issues with Select-By-Short-Edges on a particular file. It works in other files, so something in this one seems to be tickling the bug. Every time I try to do the command, it pops up the "Length tolerance" dialog box and then immediately pops up another box that says there was an "Internal Error", gives a pathname to a crash dump (attached) and tells me to restart Wings3d.
I'm running 2.1.7 development release on a macosx system 10.13.5.

Sight! Thanks for report it.

By now, just be certified there is no selection active (space bar) before you invoke the command.

Making sure there's nothing selected is just a temporary workaround, right? I believe the way it worked under Wings v1.x was that a selection limited the result set to just what was in the selection.

It's fixed. You are going to find the patch for it in a pinned topic in this session: Fixes for v2.1.7 (Patches)
You should be able to select the short edges in the entire scene - without any selection - or only the ones present in a previous selected area.
I think that was how it should to work since the code was already ready for that.

Thanks, much appreciated.
