Error description

• Summary:
  
  Reporter Plus failes to load when the values are large for
  _transform entries in the unit files.
  
  Description:
  
  In a model a .cls file (use case) somehow got corrupted and
  causes ReporterPlus to hang when loading the model. When looking
  at the Activity Diagram of the use case we can notice that the
  diagram frame doesn't even include the use case name. The .cls
  file is corrupted.
  
  Remedy:
  
  While inspecting the differences, the problematic file had an
  odd entry: 'm_transform = 0.167897 0 0 0.0552849 1.24147e+006
  57645.7 ;' in that the numbers seemed very high compared to a
  non problematic file: '- m_transform = 0.167897 0 0 0.0552849 32
  54.7207 ;'. If we change the _transform line to use the same
  numbers as the non problematic file then it does not hang
  anymore. This seems to help.

Problem conclusion

• Model file got corrupted somehow.
  A fixed added to over come such corruption so Rep++ will not
  hang.
