Sheet.ByNameNumberTitleBlockAndViews not placing oversized view

Open ParametricMonkey opened this issue 2 years ago • 1 comments

Operating System

Windows 11

What did you do?

Placed views on sheet using the 'Sheet.ByNameNumberTitleBlockAndViews' node.

What did you expect to see?

Views placed on a new sheet

What did you see instead?

Sheet created, but views not placed. An error is returned instead "...view 0 could not be packed on the sheet...".

I assume this is a 'feature' and not a 'bug' but I don't believe it should be working this way. Just because the view is too big, why should this not be placed? More often than not, it is just a scale issue or a crop region slightly too large. But it should still be placed. And even if it isn't, the other views should still be created. At the moment, if one view is too big, all the other views for that sheet are excluded too.

Hi @ParametricMonkey, Thank you for sharing your feedback with us! My initial feeling is that this is a feature to warn users and to say 'there is something you need to do'. On the other hand, I agree that we should handle the error in a way that the explanation will be clear to the user.
