This is caused by a problem with the collmap application, the one that presents the members in the smartset to the screen. To clear it up all you have to do is refresh the smartset by selecting the icon for the smartset (the 'egg') and doing an Edit..Delete. It does not matter which you choose, From This Submap or From All Submaps, since this object only appears in this submap (the Smartsets topology). It will immediately reappear blue and will be re-populated when you empty it.

Before doing, this, however, make sure the cause is gone. Do 'ps -ef | grep collmap' and make sure you only have one collmap process for each open map. Better yet, close all maps and then make sure all collmaps go away.  I've had cases where nvcold died and collmap did not, and a new one got started when I reopened the map, or when I deliberately started a new one (Administer...Start application...collmap).

You may have to clear more than one smartset this way depending on what went on while the extra collmap was running.

Cordially,

I had the same experience with 2 duplicate routers in smartsets.  I was clearing the database and rediscovering anyway, and the problem went away.

One is a duplicate symbol since they both point to the same object.  I have no idea how it got there.  But you should be able to delete it using the right click edit menu.  Or you could just ignore it since it means nothing.

Thanks James,
- Using the nvUtil tool, there is no duplicate
- Using Tools->Display Object Information , both objects have the same information
Any Idea?

Use the GUI and right click each duplicated object  and select Tools -> Display Object Information.  Are they the same object?
