HydraCARDs | When trying to use the Hangers tool, and insert a Brace, it only allows for a single brace to be added. It doesn't allow for continuous insertion as intended.

Need to save a card for later?

Create a bookmark folder in your browser of choice (Chrome, Firefox...), and save individual cards in your bookmarks to view here later.

Button: Hangers Function: Brace

Description:

When trying to use the Hangers tool, and insert a Brace, it only allows for a single brace to be added.
It doesn't allow for continuous insertion as intended.

Solutions:

Cause:

A setting in the Properties of a Section view is causing the Braces to not be inserted properly.

A program update will be released to fix this issue (version 27.1.002 or higher), but in the meantime, there is a workaround:

Solution:

Open a Section view (Can be any section view)
In the Properties palette select Edit Type (for the Section)
Now set the template for the parameter "View Template applied to new views" to <None>
Click Ok, and the Brace tool should run continuously
