zoomer Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 Is it just me or do others have also problems in SP4 ? My Previews disappear in RM as well as in any PIO when I have set my usual OpenGL Mode. They will only come back when I get down to Hidden Line or Wireframe Mode. Quote Link to comment
0 zoomer Posted July 17, 2018 Author Share Posted July 17, 2018 OK, so only missing previews for me. Will look deeper if there could be any external dependencies. Quote Link to comment
0 zoomer Posted July 17, 2018 Author Share Posted July 17, 2018 Big sorry, my fault. Class "None" was OFF Everything fine again, including Stair PIO previews .... Quote Link to comment
0 zoomer Posted July 18, 2018 Author Share Posted July 18, 2018 But I'm a bit confused why I get Previews by HL or Wireframe when "None" Class OFF anyway ? Just not OpenGL. Quote Link to comment
0 Kevin McAllister Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 (edited) I think this is a bug. Resource Manager previews shouldn't be dependent on class visibility. If the None class is off and the thumbnail of a symbol in the Resource Manager is changed to OpenGL the thumbnail disappears. Edit: I submitted this as a bug.

0 zoomer Posted July 18, 2018 Author Share Posted July 18, 2018 Thanks Kevin, now I got it and 100% agree with your post. Quote Link to comment
0 Kevin McAllister Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 @zoomer is the geometry in the symbols you have showing the preview issue assigned to the "None" class? I'm curious because of a question I had from Tech Support. My test geometry was not. Kevin Quote Link to comment
0 zoomer Posted July 19, 2018 Author Share Posted July 19, 2018 Sorry for the delay, I have a VW furniture Symbol that has everything on "None" by default and fails in Open GL preview when "None" OFF, although it can show Wireframe and Hidden Line when "None" OFF. Same behaviors for my PIOs like Columns in RM that are not on "None" Class but everything set to Custom Classes. Although I can not guarantee that there isn't any internal VW usage of a "None" Class anyway. So IMHO, VW update to show RM Previews without reacting to View Class Visibility Settings, which I think is great, for now seems to work well for Wireframe and Hidden Line modes but just still fails for OpenGL Mode. Does that make sense ? Quote Link to comment

I have set my usual OpenGL Mode.
They will only come back when I get down to Hidden Line or Wireframe Mode.
