MacroFlo Opening Types Set to 0% After VE 6.0.6 Upgrade
This issue can occur if a project is upgraded to 6.0.6 and a Compliance simulation is run without first going into MacroFlo or Apache.
To avoid this problem, when you first upgrade a project to 6.0.6 change to MacroFlo and open the MacroFlo Opening Types dialog. You should find that Openable Area has not changed, save the opening types and then proceed to the simulation.
If Opening Types have already been corrupted the only way to get these back is to extract the project again and then change to MacroFlo view. When you do this the project.mfo file is updated.
Fix a corrupt project:
1. Obtain the backup cab that was created when the project was upgraded
2. Extract this cab and open the backup project in 6.0.6
3. Change to MacroFlo and open the Opening Types dialog.
4. Save the Opening Types (this will update the backupproject.mfo file)
5. Browse to the backup project and in the MacroFlo folder take a copy of the backupproject.mfo file.
6. In the original project replace the project.mfo file in the MacroFlo folder with the backupproject.mfo file.
7. Next time you open the project the Opening Types will have the correct Openable Areas.
