Problem Description

ProConcrete Crashing repeatedly when using rebar tools. It's not allowing to add any new bars or edit bars without the very likely possibility of the application crashing. Also, crashing when using Modify Rebar tool to detail the bars.

Reason

Such a crash may happen due to various reasons, some of which are listed below.
1. It may crash because of the different resolution and working area units in the Design File Settings.
2. It may crash if the rebars in the model are not correctly created or modified.

Steps to resolve

Enter methods to resolve in this section.

1. If you are using a custom seed file to create a new file then please ensure that the units for resolution and working area in the Design File Settings are as per the below image or not.

For Imperial-

2. If you find differences in the units then please change the units to the default value and the crashing issue should be resolved.

3. If you have the default values in the Design File Settings and still the program is crashing then please ensure that the rebars that you have placed are correct or not.
