new image stucks vectorworks 8.51

[Amir]

I have found a problem while using vectorworks 8.51 with renderworks (windows version).Every time i try to create new texture and choose an image from my hard disk,once the browsing window appears i can not browse,the computer stuck and i have to use the famous alt+control+delete in order to get out of this embrassing situatin-most critical for me since i teach using vectorworks and renderworks.I tryed it on 3 differnt computers and they react the same.I have to emphasize that the problem did not seem to apper while using vectorworks 8.0.

Dose anyone have a solution ,other than go back to vw8.0 version or buing a Mac...?

thanks

Have you considered upgrading to VectorWorks 8.5.2? The release notes and updater are here:

we have a problem back in israel with version 8.5.2 because it turns hebrew (which is written from right to left-like a mirror

left,so they might solve one problem but created another(as usually hapends...)do you have other ideas?

Which Quicktime version are you using?

Have you tried to update to version 4.1?

I've not had your problem, but I have had trouble with the texture mapping window and other functions of RW which seemed to be caused by an old version of Quicktime. I think you can get the most recient version from the apple web site

Good Luck
