When trimming with 3D polyline and Live Preview on, Autocad Freezes

Getting an error in 2015 when trimming lines with a 3d polyline. (see attached drawing).

Download 0011 – trimming 3d polylines 2015_test1

I select the complex 3d polyline as the trimming line, then when I go to trim the lines. IF I accidentally hover over the 3d polyline I am using to trim it just freezes for up to 5 minutes.

If I turn off live preview I don’t get the error?

The more complex the 3d polyline the longer the wait!

What’s wrong?

Osnaps and overlapping surfaces causes civil 3d to freeze/crash

Well after some basic investigation I have found the problem.

Overlapping surfaces that both have contours displayed will cause freezing when osnaps is turned on.

Download the example file here – onsnaps-freeze1,  see image below for explanation. Try and draw a polyline over the top of the overlapping area with onsnaps turned on

I can confirm that this happens in both Civil 3D 2014 and 2015. With 2015 recovering slighltly faster than 2014. say 3-5 minutes instead of 10 – 15minutes
