Nicinus Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 This is obviously a technical problem but I am curious to hear if anyone else is suffering from something similar. My dbx windows sometimes disappears behind my main window. If I then click in the main window it comes back briefly until I try to select something else, and it goes on like this, flickering back and forth while I'm trying to make my choices. My solution has been to pull the dbx over to my second screen. I have a GTX780 with latest drivers under Win 8.1, but I have no issues in any other software including 3ds Max and Adobe CS6 so I'm inclined to believe this is somehow a Chief related issue.

Nicinus Posted June 20, 2014 Author Share Posted June 20, 2014 Yes, really odd. I don't have any issues with any other apps so it doesn't seem to be the card. I'm more thinking that Chief may have an issue with multiple screens or something. I can reproduce it fairly easy. Seems to happen a lot when I'm in materials looking in the library dbx.

Bill_Emery Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 I've had this happen (not lately), and I'm using a nvidia GTX 780 mobile card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicinus Posted June 20, 2014 Author Share Posted June 20, 2014 Mobile? I can reproduce it on my system by for example open a room specification (doesn't matter if plan or camera), go to materials and select a material and then open the Library Material dbx. After that it is enough to just hoover over a choice for a couple of seconds and the whole dbx disappears. If I click the mouse somewhere it comes right back. In fact it only appears to be an issue with the "Select Library Object" dbx... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DRAWZILLA Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 Any of you guys with the latest NVidia drivers (340.43) having a problem with the watercolor settings being real dark and not usable. Not sure if its Chief or NVidia. This is only with the newest last couple of drivers, and I haven't changed the watercolor settings since X6 came out.

Nicinus Posted June 20, 2014 Author Share Posted June 20, 2014 I'm unfortunately a too new user to be able to tell, but if you want to send me a file I can upload a screen shot of how it looks on my screen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
