Blocks built the same but explode different


Recommended Posts

Posted

Can anyone tell me the difference between the two blocks in the attached file please?

When I explode the 1 on the left, it changes the outline of the tree to a polyline - this is the desired effect I want! :)

 

However, do it to the tree on the right and it explodes the line to many little lines! - NOT what i want! :(

 

I've looked at them both in block editor and they both seem to be constructed with poly lines so I thought they should both explode the same?

 

Can anyone tell me why they dont?

 

Thanks everyone

Not sure why, but if you change both of the blocks insertion scales to a value of 1, then explode them both; they both retain the polyline

ah, wish i could do that! ive had to scale them all serparatly (in my main drawing I have roughly 160 trees shown) to show their verying size! i need them all to be polylines to be able to trim them around eachother! :(

The troublesome one has different scales along the X & Y axes.

It seems that if the scale is set equally, the polyline will be retained.

hmm thats what it looks like! although im afraid i cant scale them evenly for what im doing! :(
