DMoore56 Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 I just downloaded and started using X8. Today started a new plan and when I used the camera view my screen blacked out. It blacked out on all views. But when I used the Orthographic tool it was fine. Does anyone know why this is happening?? Thanks, DMoore56 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gawdzira Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 Post the specs of your computer and graphics card. It sounds like a graphics card problem. Also, look in your 3d view defaults to see what is different with the perspective view camera settings that might be causing the difference.

DMoore56 Posted October 11, 2016 Author Share Posted October 11, 2016 I have another house plan I'm working on. In that plan the camera view works fine. I even tried to start another plan to see and it did the same thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
javatom Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 Maybe that plan has an errant default setting. Defaults are plan specific. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution DRAWZILLA Posted October 11, 2016 Solution Share Posted October 11, 2016 Without posting your spec's and plan you are using, it just a guessing game. You can also submit to tech support Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DMoore56 Posted October 12, 2016 Author Share Posted October 12, 2016 Thanks guys, yes it was a default setting, my camera setting was checked "show shadows" and my orthographic view was not checked. My graphics card can't handle shadows! I need to upgrade my computer. Any suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DRAWZILLA Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 Just buy the best processor and video card you can afford. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
