scarth Posted July 3, 2005 Share Posted July 3, 2005 I sometimes get this mysterious miniature model that shows up on my prints of rendered models (usually in the top left corner) what the heck is that from? thx Quote Link to comment
islandmon Posted July 5, 2005 Share Posted July 5, 2005 Ok ... ray bob... you are apparently living in the alternate Totalitarian Universe where there is only one of everyhing... including hardware and software configurations... that little mysterious miniature model is generated by the 'ALL Seeing Eye'... a little info on your set-up can help get this issue resolved.

CipesDesign Posted July 5, 2005 Share Posted July 5, 2005 LOL I'mon, and amen. And PS, I have just returned from your lovely corner of the earth (actually the BVI's, with a little time in St. John). IMO you are a lucky guy. Do you ever get time to enjoy it? What are the requirements for plan submittal there? Can you tell I'm thinking of an eventual change, preferrably to a place where the temp never falls below 65? f. You could PM me if you want. Sorry for the intrusion Ray Bob... Quote Link to comment
Colin Howlett Posted July 6, 2005 Share Posted July 6, 2005 I've had that when exporting renderings as images, so I'm not sure its really a printing problem - I can't remember the details of what I did to get it tho' :-( A (very poor) example of what I'm talking about is here [ 07-06-2005, 10:41 AM: Message edited by: Colin Howlett ] Quote Link to comment

I am working on an xp operating system with 10.5 renderworks, architect thansk for all of your help even the cryptic answers :-) Quote Link to comment
CipesDesign Posted July 11, 2005 Share Posted July 11, 2005 Ray Bob, EJ was asking for your configuaration, in other words: what type of computer, what operating system, what version of VectorWorks, etc. etc. There are so many different combinations that you could be using, and your particular configuration may hold clues as to what is going on...

islandmon Posted July 22, 2005 Share Posted July 22, 2005 The problem could be as simple as having an unwanted scaled down model layer off the page space ( which is not shown on your laptop display unless you enlarge the view ). The Print Drivers will 'see & print' the scaled down model layer even though you cannot. So everything is working fine.. just check your layers. Or... The solution to your dilemma may be found in the synergistic behavour of VW10.5> OpenGL drivers> video circuitry>print drivers installed on your laptop. First, You may want to Test the file on a separate workstation by sending it to NNA.The hardest solution is to upgrade Video & Print Drivers and if you can afford it.. get VW11.01 or go for VW11.5.2 SP.
