BethVanDeusen Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 Sometimes (not every plan), when I go to elevation view, the labels (cabinet, window, door, etc.) are black boxes. When I zoom in or out, I can see the labels briefly, but they return to a pixilated box once the image is stable. I've attached an example. Any suggestions?

Dennis_Gavin Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 Beth - haven't had that....yet. Yesterday I lost my user catalogue. Closed and reopened Chief and it was back. I, on occasion have funny things happen with the library. It disappears and I have to click the icon to get it back. (X5 & X6) I would suggest closing and restarting CA and see if that helps.

BethVanDeusen Posted March 28, 2014 Author Share Posted March 28, 2014 Thanks Dennis - but it didn't work. And to clarify, I can be working on the same plan in the same session and it will happen. The labels are legible, I resize a cabinet, they become illegible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NCC-1701 Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 Update your video drivers, try a different font, post the plan, add a signature to your profile showing your computer specs... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DRAWZILLA Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 Yes, looks like a video card problem to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard_Morrison Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 It's clearly a video problem, but it may be solved by turning off optimizations, or software edge smoothing, or something like that, in Chief. Probably worth a call to tech support. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DRAWZILLA Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 The NVidia driver you show is an old one. 296 is old they are up to 335 now. Try updating it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b00fhead Posted July 22, 2014 Share Posted July 22, 2014 Beth, I can't help but you're not alone, I'm having the same issue with door and window labels, I'm running X6 on a near new Dell with NVIDIA GeForce GT 640M, with 326.60 driver, I thought it was a video card problem also - now I'm not so sure X6 Premier on win 8.1Ken DyckhoffBrisbane, Australia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
