While drawing a division plate, I came across this bug that choked my CAM system.
Using the Points Along Curve to create 100 point around a circle, each point is repeated many, many times. So much so, that my CAM system locked up solid. The points list displayed at around 10,000 instead of 100.

Please see Attachment.

Thanks.

I wonder if it's a problem in the export .. as when I made a circle and dropped 100 points along it - I got an object count of 101

Is it possible that the center of the circle is being counted as one or 101?

Right, I've just checked again and it didn't do it at first. It is repeatable if the initial point count is edited to a [COLOR="Black"]higher[/COLOR] value while the points are still highlighted.

Thanks for looking.
Martin.
