User interface issue Hi all, i just have installed latest version 5.4. After start of the application everything seems fine. But right after I create a single wall weird thing is going on with the user interface. The interface is starting to render ui components on random places over each other where ever the mouse cursor is moving, check the screen 1 or screen 2. I have tried install version and also portable versions in 32 and 64 bit variants. Everytime with the same effect. I'm using Windows 10, AMD RX 480 latest Crimson driver 17.3.2. Anyone any idea what can be wrong or how to fix this? Thanks in advance. |

Re: User interface issue So far I have tried different Java versions 6, 7 and 8 in combination of 32 and 64bit with different Java look and feel. I have also tried SH3D version 3.4 and 4.0, same problem. Started with Windows 7 compatibility and admin rights had no effect. I have found already reported bug https://sourceforge.net/p/sweethome3d/bugs/684/. Also according to this issue there is at least one another application with the same problem https://github.com/magefree/mage/issues/1514. My current conclusion is that it have to be problem in JVM directly or on OS or graphic card driver level, because same problem was reported on Windows 7 and 10 and on nVidia and AMD graphic cards. I think it is not related directly to the 3D part oh the SH3D, but more general problem of Java UI rendering. I was able to simulate it also with just opening combobox in the Settings menu right after the application started. |

Re: User interface issue I have tried Java 8_121 32 and 64bit, Java 8_66 32 bit, Java 7_79 32bit, Java 6_43 32 and 64bit. Java3D is 1.6 in SH3D 5.4. I don't know Java3D version in SH3D 4.0 and 3.4 at the moment, but my guess is 1.5.2? Anyway the problem may be related to Swing's 2D rendering engine using Direct3D. But setting -Dsun.java2d.opengl=true -Dsun.java2d.d2d=false leads to SH3D failed to start with error message that DirectX is required for 3D or something like that (I can't show the exact message at the moment, because I'm not on my home PC). |

Re: User interface issue Small progress. Using this settings: -Dsun.java2d.opengl=true -Dsun.java2d.d2d=false leads to this. Using just settings: -Dsun.java2d.d2d=false shows error message that there is problem in 3D rendering system initialisation and SH3D is closed. Using settings: -Dsun.java2d.d2d=false -Dcom.eteks.sweethome3d.no3D=true finally makes the SH3D working and no UI glitches so far. Disadvantage is the missing 3D overview and rendering possibility. So it definitely seems like problem in Swing components rendering using Direct3D. |

Re: User interface issue Started successfully with jre1.6.0_05 x64 including 3D view. There is problem in combination of newer Java versions (maybe because of some d2d changes in Java 6 u10), DirectX and graphic card driver. 1. Download and install jre-6u5-windows-x64.exe 2. Go to Program Files/java/jre1.6.0_05 3. Copy and overwrite directories bin and lib from the java installation folder to Sweet Home 3D/jre8 directory 4. Start SH3D |

Re: User interface issue Nathan Mai seems to have found a solution to this issue. It would be nice if more users could report how it works for them. ---------------------------------------- Emmanuel Puybaret, Sweet Home 3D creator |

Re: User interface issue Hi, I'm so extremely happy right now! @Treglis tip with jre6 worked! I have had a very long history with this issue and I was thinking that I would never find a solution. I've been searching for an answer for years and strangely enough I just found @Treglis tip yesterday. With my latest build it was actually fine for some time until I changed GPU from AMD Radeon R9 285x to NVIDIA GeForce GTX970. Strangely enough the old AMD GPU worked in my previous build… anyway, now thanks to Treglis awesome advice it works again. |

Re: User interface issue Hi again, I'm not so happy anymore. :I Seems the Treglis pro tip actually didn't work for me. For some reason though Sweet Home 3D v6.3 seems to run more stable on my computer than the previous version(s). |
