nickdsa Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 I've been having trouble getting some of the new rendering options for openGL to function as advertised. Specifically, when I choose "display edges", planar faces of objects appear highly trianglated, making the resulting images distracting and useless for presentation purposes. Also, I can't seem to uncheck the box for "on ground plane only" for the shadow display. It is always on. Are these hardware issues, or a Vectorworks problem? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

jwh Posted March 10, 2008 Share Posted March 10, 2008 I am having the same problem with the openGL shadow display - it will not let me uncheck the "on ground plane only" box and it will not render shadows correctly. I have other machines in the office that are a bit older and they render fine. I suspect it is my graphic card - I have new imac 24" alum. w/ graphic card ATI Radeon HD 2600 Pro. Is there a fix for this? thanks. Quote Link to comment
nickdsa Posted March 12, 2008 Author Share Posted March 12, 2008 I downloaded the "leopard graphics update" from apple (through software update, and now the shadows seem to work, sort of. still having nasty triangulations with the edge display turned on. Quote Link to comment
jwh Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 I'm running intel Imac 2.4 GHZ with OSX 10.4.11, I have downloaded all software updates - still not seeing shadows. Quote Link to comment
