Hi Brian,
Which version of Stadium is this. I have experienced this before and a restart of the computer helped. If not, please email me the solution file and one of our Dev team can open it and save it for you to open again.
Best regards,
Dawie

I am using this version:
I have send a copy of the solution to @anton.platzoeder, but I will also send you a copy.
Thank you
