Undo convert a model to primitive

User: "Altair Forum User"

How do I undo a model conversion to primitive? I accidentally clicked 'Convert to primitive' and when I clicked undo, the program immediately crashed saying 'Critical error'. It'll be extremely inconvenient for me to recreate this model. I've included the model. A simple 'yes it's possible and here's how' or 'no there is no way' will suffice. TIA

    Hi Zain

     

    Unfortunately, that action removes the creation history, so you have lost the parameterisation of the part. I don't see you you'd be able to get it back. I hope you saved/archived not too many changes ago.

     

    Kind regards

    Hi Madelé,

     

    It is wasn't many archives ago, but it was a particularly long parameterization session ago. But okay, now I can stop trying to undo it. I'll go have a good cry and restart.

     

    Regards,

    Zain

    Did you make all the changes that you want to get back in a single session? You might be able to recover some changes from the log files (look in your FEKO User home directory for the Lua files saved there - type 'cd %FEKO_USER_HOME%' in the FEKO terminal to find out where these files are stored).

    Yes, it was in a single session, but I think I've already overwritten some of the files a few moments ago. It's fine, I'll just restart. Thanks
