1. Do any export options (besides VW) keep the textures intact? 2. Every time I export a DWG or DXF 3D scene, it makes all the separate components into one solid model. Is there a way to keep all pieces separate?

I've had several crashes in 11.5! Always right before I save... ;-)

Tell me if I am missing something obvious? How come all the scales on a common architectural scale ruler aren?t available when picking a scale in VW? 3/8 and 3/16 are fairly common on drawing I receive from architects.

I guess I will dump my $3000 machine with my PC software and convince my company to buy another $3000 Mac with new software... that will solve all my problems. Thanks!!

Nick, I have the full install of 6.5.1, but it hasn't helped. If you would like it, I can email it to you.

Update to previous post? I just discovered that the new feature, openGL and rendering within a group, works but when I am out of the group I can?t do openGL.

Sorry for being so vague about the openGL, I am just frustrated. When trying to render in openGL, the program freezes halfway thru the geometry calculation. It also won?t let me do a full final renderworks. I have tried several things including copying and pasting into a new document. I have Service Pack 1 installed. I?ve updated my video driver within the last month.

I am using WinXP and I have reverted back to the recommended QT version. The Redraw is really, really slow now. I'm also having problems with the OpenGL that worked fine in 11.0.1. What happened?!?!?!?!?!?!?
