I found this example I mentioned before. We have two duplicates are not picked under Issue - Duplicate Surfaces
Panel 470 and Panel 381 in Space 00_153

Thenk you for sending the test file.

In this file both spaces and building storeys have spaces in their IDs

Line 16: <Space zoneIdRef="ZoneID" conditionType="Unknown" buildingStoreyIdRef="Level 00" id="00_100 Studio_1">

Spaces cause issues. See https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2277297/can-xml-attributes-have-spaces

These errors seem to be preventing both the Reports panel and the Issues panels from completing successfully.

We probably can get the Viewer to flag these errors more carefully. Maybe we could replace the spaces with a hyphen. But I hesitate adding this sort of slowdown unless we come across this issue fairly frequently.

So far we have only seen this problem in you SAM files. Is there anyway you can prevent the SAM files from doing this?

By the way, please note that the file also has CAD Object ID errors.

thanks for catching this
I updated my code and we do not have spaces in IDs

Line 16:
<Space zoneIdRef="ZoneID" conditionType="Unknown" buildingStoreyIdRef="Level-00" id="00_001-WC">

Still Report panel is not working for me

There are several issues with these surfaces.

Exposed to Sun should be set to false not true.

Interior floors should have two adjacent spaces not one.

Therefore trying to fix something that is quite broken is likely to lead to issues. Best to just edit the XML text for now. In the future there should be a fix button for missing adjacent spaces. Ditto incorrect 'exposed to Sun' values.
