alheims Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 A bit frustrated here... First issue: It doesn't matter what drawing or what size the plan is, I can work away without a problem, but the issue shows up when I open a 3d view and then attempt to close it. I can have multiple 3d views open but if I close them all, my crosshairs disappear from my drawing space. I can move the cursor off the screen to select buttons, but once I place it within the drawing space again, poof, it's gone. If I leave one 3d view open, I can keep working though. So I have to close the plan and reopen, or make sure I leave a 3d view open. This is also apparent within the library 3d views, although that's hit or miss it seems. Second issue (probably related): I'm working on a window schedule and can zip around in there, UNTIL I attempt to change the label. I click on "Specify Label" but it doesn't change *on screen*. I can type in the box to change it, but can't see what's being typed until after I close the window dbx and open it again. I'm assuming a graphics card thing, but I don't know for sure. (See attached) Any suggestions to help alleviate my frustrations would be appreciated. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidJPotter Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 Updating your video card drivers is free for most cards, that is the first thing I would do. Then I would check my Mouse software drivers and general Operating System health. DJP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rlackore Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 You show 3 displays: 1 & 2 are driven by the integrated Intel HD Graphics P530 chipset; 3 is driven by the discreet Nvidia Quadro M3000M. I wonder if this may be the source of your issues. I'm guessing you have a mobile workstation and the higher-end Quadro card only has a single port. Maybe unplug the Quadro monitor and see if the problem persists on the Intel displays, or vice-versa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ikedcr Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 What David Potter said is probably the answer to your problems. I had this EXACT same thing happen to me two weeks ago. I updated the video card driver and that took care of it 100%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alheims Posted August 31, 2018 Author Share Posted August 31, 2018 I just disabled the NVIDIA driver and it fixed the problem, so I updated the NVIDIA driver from the Dell site but nothing changed. I went directly to the NVIDIA site and downloaded the driver and it's fixed. Thanks, guys! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chopsaw Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 Any chance you could post the version number of the bad driver in case others are experiencing related symptoms ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
