resolve mode

[michaelpaul]

I've been puzzled by this and was wondering if anybody has a good answer.

Why, when you fix a failure, does Pro ask if you'd like to exit failure resolve mode? I find it annoying that I must click Yes to continue working as I 've yet to figure out why I'd ever want to stay in resolve mode if I've fixed my failure.

Is this just another of PTC's if one click is good, more is better approaches or is there really a good reason for it?

Guess it's PTC's way

You have to say "yes" to everything, yes i've finished drawing, yes i want the feature built now, yes i only wanted to look at parameters, yes i want to exit, yes i'm sure ...


It even bothers me that you have to get into resolve mode hell everytime there is some trouble. IfProE can't resolve what is there, why not freeze it in the state it was and leave the part/assembly as it is and give the user the choice to solve things rightaway or later, or to screw things up further...

Some times I resume a few suppressed features at a time. So I can save during resolution. If I want to resume several small groups one after the other before I save I will say no to exiting resolve mode and select feature resume again. This allows me to keep the backup model open and not have to retrieve it every time I get a failure. I need to exit resolve mode to save. But that always closes the open back up model. Several milli-seconds are saved each time.
