    the problem:
    When I use the command to union objects, some of it simply disappear without apparent reason .

    I dont remember what mesage appears in command line, but ill check and return.

    Thanks

    I had that problem too, but it just sometimes came up, i guess 1 out of 1000 every I do union command. Still don't know what happen,but the only I can do is drawing from the beginning again.

    If my memory doesn't fail me, its a null-object created error, am I right? yes It happens very rarely, and only on complex objects that already undergone some solids operations. (union, subtract, intersect, etc.)

    I will give you some of my solutions to try but since this a program error, there is no guarantee this will solve your problem.

    1. Sometimes, a very big scale model results in points too far from the origin. I had this experience one time that I can't even extrude an object by 100,000 units.
    Solution: I would recommend modeling in meters(1 acad unit=1 meter) instead of 1 acad unit=1mm. and try to start modeling from the origin.
    2. If the problem is due to complex geometry within the drawing, try copying the object and paste it in a new file and try the operation there.

    I hope it will solve your problem, if not, just let it go. Treat it as a glitch.

    You need to zip and post a dwg file that exhibits the behavior. I would not bother to hazard a guess (and it would be a guess) without a file.
