Contour v1.4 bug?

Postby Dieter » Mon Feb 06, 2017 8:42 am

Hi,

Just updated, cannot click on imported models and move them around with the mouse.
Also, viewing from the TOP position, the models are flipped over... strange...

In Contour v1.3.14 non of this happened to me.

just saying... hope this helps.

Hi,

For the mouse issue, try ticking the "Disable View Anti-Aliasing" box on the preferences page.

For the second issue, do you mean the models flip position along the X or Y axis?

Hi Marc,

The first issue, turned the 'Disable view anti-aliasing' box ON, still the same issue after restarting.
Can click the different models but cannot move them with the mouse! Previous versions this was possible. Movement only by buttons or menu.

Second issue, X or Y I don't know... you just see the backside of the model instead of the topview when pushing TOP

Gr,

I have been having the first issue for a while now. Every time I update contour I lose the ability to click and drag. Emil walked me through a way to re-enable the click and drag feature. You have to lower the "pictureQuality multisampling" that is in the "viewConfig" file that is in the Data folder. C:\Program Files\SolusContour\Data. Copy the text document to your desktop and then open it. Look for <pictureQuality multisampling="8" /> and lower the number. Then drag the new text document back into the data folder and replace. I have mine set to <pictureQuality multisampling="4" />
