Known Problems and Workarounds
for WebSpace Author 1.0
- Undo and Redo work for all operations EXCEPT Anchor and Inlines. There is no workaround except to save your work often to give yourself a checkpoint to which you can return if you find you want to undo something.
- Publishing now writes out strict VRML files. The only exception is that WebSpace Author does not check anchors that link to local files to make sure that those files contain legal web documents.
- Currently, no mechanism exists for automatically uncompressing .gz files during import into WebSpace Author. As a workaround, copy the file over and uncompress it by hand before importing it.
- After an ungroup operation, no object is specified as the primary selection. All selections are treated equally.
- On occasion, during opening of the LOD editor, the viewer and scrub bar windows of the editor may not redraw. As a workaround if this happens, click on the LOD editor icon again in the main toolbar to force a redraw.
- If an LOD object is selected, the Ungroup menu item is not grayed, allowing the user to perform an ungroup operation. This will cause a core dump. As a workaround, you can check which objects are LODs by using the Show Levels of Detail menu item. If you really want to go down inside an LOD, do it in the LOD editor.
