Where did the 3D view go? I only got Sweet Home 3D today and was playing around on it. When I started using it for some planning, the 3D view sort of disappeared. The pane is still there, but completely inactive. Please help! |

Re: Where did the 3D view go? Not sure what you mean by "completely inactive". Did you try to fix your problem from the FAQ? ---------------------------------------- Emmanuel Puybaret, Sweet Home 3D creator |

Re: Where did the 3D view go? the 3d view pane is greyed out and displays nothing. Am reading the FAQ at the moment |

Re: Where did the 3D view go? Turns out there is nothing addressing this problem in the FAQ. |

Re: Where did the 3D view go? I'm having the same problem: it's as though my plan won't render at all. Sometimes closing Sweet Home and launching it again fixes it, sometimes not. SW3D (latest version) was working fine until Java prompted me to update to the latest version of the JVM, Java version 6 update 29. After that I couldn't even launch SH via my desktop icon anymore. I uninstalled everything to do with Java (I'd also had a developer's kit installed for some reason), rebooted and reinstalled the JVM. After that, Sweet Home would run but I began having frequent 3D rendering issues. Sometimes the 3D preview pane is just gray, and sometimes the 3D view pops up in weird places, such as covering the menu bar or part of the plan. Usually when the latter happens, minimizing then maximizing SH3D fixes it though I may have to do that a few times. Basically it's behaving similarly to old Windows NT 4.0 with its screen refresh/graphics issues that it was known for. I think it may be a Java issue rather than a graphics card or driver issue as the latter haven't changed, just Java. I plan to try downgrading my JVM to an earlier version- I'll let you know what happens. (BTW I'm using a Dell Inspiron 6400 notebook with its built-in Mobile Intel 945 Express video chipset, 2 GHz Core Duo CPU and 4GB of RAM. There's 39.6GB free on my 111GB (formatted, 120 gig unformatted) hard drive. The OS is Vista Home Premium SP2.) |
