Annoying display problem / 3d view refresh? About Truespace Archives These pages are a copy of the official truespace forums prior to their removal somewhere around 2011.

Annoying display problem / 3d view refresh? // Tech Forum 1  |   Order by default Post by sk2k // Aug 6, 2008, 5:40am sk2k Total Posts: 3 Hi, whenever i move/close a toolbar or dialog (like the material editor) it leaves a mark in the 3d view. When i rotate/pan/zoom the view, only the mark is updated, but not the whole 3d view. I have to use ALT+TAB to fix it. This IS annoying. :( It happens in DirectX and OpenGL mode but not in wireframe mode. I attached a picture with the material editor open. I moved the window several times. The red marked area is the last mark and only this shows me the changes when i rotate/pan/zoom the v3d view. I press ALT-TAB to go back into TS and it is fixed...until the next closed dialog/toolbar. :( MfG sk2k Post by trueSpaced // Aug 6, 2008, 5:44am trueSpaced Total Posts: 544 Mine will do that sometimes too, but the marks go away after rotating the camera... I don't know how to fix it... Anyone else? -TrueSpaced:banana: Post by stan // Aug 6, 2008, 6:16am stan Total Posts: 1240 right click the directx or opengl icons and their setting panel will open. try a using different settings. :) Post by sk2k // Aug 6, 2008, 7:13am sk2k Total Posts: 3 right click the directx or opengl icons and their setting panel will open. try a using different settings. :) I tried these settings (in many combinations) already. The problem is still there.

The directx and opengl from model side is not going to do anything on workspace side, which is what the image shows. Or could be model side made to look like workspace side. I wonder if this is a graphics driver/settings scenario. You may wish to experiment with settings and ensure driver is current.

Floating toolbars and the library browser just dispappear and leave like ghost shadows until I hover over them to make them reappear again. http://forums1.caligari.com/truespace/showthread.php?t=2093 Post by sk2k // Aug 6, 2008, 8:35pm sk2k Total Posts: 3 Hmm, i think i "fixed" the problem. Looks like Microsoft is punishing you for not enabling and using AERO. ;) I re-enabled the AERO service and the design service and switched from the standard Windows look to AERO look. Voila! No more trails/marks in modelspace. Btw. the problem was just in the modelspace and not in the workspace. I think that ATI somehow optimized their drivers to work better with AERO and they forgot to look closer at other issues with their drivers. Or it is generally a problem with disabled AERO service....hmm...i really do not know. :( Oh, i had a similar problem with Kerkythea and it's also fixed now. :) MfG sk2k p.s.: The drivers are up to date.
