Kurt Magness Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 (edited) When I look at some of my architecture files, 3d models, in front, left, right, and rear views, but not in iso views, vwks 2011 crashes . It does this in wire frame, but not in open gl. Why ? Kurt Edited June 20, 2012 by Kurt Magness Quote Link to comment

Kurt Magness Posted June 20, 2012 Author Share Posted June 20, 2012 I opened the trouble file on my powerbook and it seemed fine. I reinstalled vwks and disconnected the tablet. The file still as issues. I guess I will try to fix permissions with the apple disk utility ? thanks Quote Link to comment
Ray Libby Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 Repairing permissions is a good start. Check to make sure you have the latest video drivers. Quote Link to comment
Kurt Magness Posted June 21, 2012 Author Share Posted June 21, 2012 I am using a stock power mac without any special video cards. Its so weird. The file is not that big only 32 gb. One other file does the same thing but every other one seems ok ? I kinda think there is some corrupted object in it but where to start looking for it or them ? Quote Link to comment
bcd Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 Duplicate the file. go delete half the objects and try to reproduce the crash if successful return to go If not undo & delete the other half return to go Quote Link to comment
Kurt Magness Posted June 22, 2012 Author Share Posted June 22, 2012 Well I fixed permissions and removed the wacom tablet drivers ( I had the latest ones installed ) . Now using a wireless logitech mouse with it's lastest driver. Now the file doesn't crash on front, left, right, back, views but does when I use the scroll wheel zoom in, zoom out, zoom in, quickly in succession. The wacom tablet I have is old so I think it's either not compatible with vwks 2011 or something else is wrong with it. So off to the trash for it. I will try a stock mac mouse and remove the logitech one to see if that affects the scroll wheel, zoom in zoom out issue. Quote Link to comment

Kurt Magness Posted November 30, 2012 Author Share Posted November 30, 2012 absolute views of a model (front, back, left , right) in wireframe mode crashes vectorworks, open gl mode does not ? Quote Link to comment
