polydivide tool error

Brandon,

As discussed in your ticket (thanks for sending in the drawing!), the line that you were using to divide the polygon was set at an elevation of 1159.46. Moving that line back down to zero allowed polydivide to work.

It looks like the increased elevation caused the error "angle specified does not intersect polygon appropriately". I'll make sure an error page is put up for this.

Thanks for bringing it up!

Update: 

I did finally get a polydivide to work on one of the problematic hatches but I had to draw the dividing line at an obscure/sharp angle instead of perpendicular. Then modify the vertices of the hatched polyline to get it where I needed it. I would have thought the perpendicular or more simple angle would have been the easiest/most stable direction. 

I tried again this morning after a system restart, and also tried in a new blank drawing with the same error message.  So I sent you all the file through the support ticket submission.  If you can figure out what I am doing incorrectly to drive the error that would be appreciated so I can avoid the same issue in the future. 

You could try copying and pasting the polyline into a completely blank drawing, to see if it works there.

Beyond that, I can't think of much.  You are always welcome to send us the drawing, so we can take a look at it.
