pre 2012, if you had display edged faces on, the selected splines would turn white - so you could tell what was selected in viewport. using nitrous, this isn't possible for us. Open GL or Direct 3D work fine but not nitrous. or is this a bug?

View 3 Replies View RelatedIn 2013 I could turn off edged faces. Now, even if I do the same thing in 2014, it actually keeps showing the edged faces on selected object.

When I am in an editable poly, and the Viewport is set to Smooth & Highlights + Edged Faces...
When I go to make a polygon selection, the edge faces option divides each polygon into two triangles which is just annoying. Maybe I'm just used to newer versions of max where it doesn't do this.
When I import a dwg model exported from Revit, the curtain walls (frames and glass pannels) do not display with Nitrous. They are there and can be selected from the layer manager. They are visible if I add an Editable Mesh modifier.
DirectX and OpenGL display properly.
FBX import display properly
is this normal? my display is completly blown out when using the nitrous display. how can i fix it?
the first one is the display, the secon is the render. should they not look similar???
I have a horrible lag when trying to select objects in Nitrous display mode. When my FPS drop and navigation starts to lag, marquee selection also starts to lag proportionally to the FPS. If I draw a rectangle to select some objects, I have to wait about 3-4 seconds for the rectangular marquee to expand and reach my mouse cursor on more complex scenes. There's no such problems in Direct3D display mode. Even if the FPS drop to 1-2, selection remains lightning fast.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI switched to MAX 2012 recently and it's hard for me to texture my models because of selected faces being highlighted red while using modifier like UVW Xform, UVW Map and Unwrap UVW.
On older MAX release when you selected desired polygons to apply UVW Map for example, faces stoped being red, now it's not and I can't see how my texture is applied on my model because of that.
I don't know what happened, but suddenly, i couldn't see the selected faces of the object i was modeling in my viewport, just the edges
what I want to see when I select faces is this (Minute 2) [URL] ......
In max 2012 with latest updates as of 12/12/12 the function for seeing what faces/polys i have selected in subobject does not work. I hit F2 with no effect at all but F3 and F4 have an effect.

How can you do the area takeoff of only the selected faces (red area)?
Right now I have to use the 3rd party software to do something like this. I'm curious if there's a way to do inside Revit?
I'm trying to create an external involute spline (ANSI B92.2M) Fillet Root Side Fit 26.9mm x 1 mm x 26 teeth x 38 mm long using the spline generator with Inventor 2012. I created a test shaft"M-182-AMA.ipt" that is Ø26.9 mm x 38 mm long with 1 mm radius on each end of shaft.
I use the following steps:
1. After creating component "M-182-AMA.ipt" I select Design tab>>Power Transmission>>Involute Spline.
2. A window appears that has the caption "Involute Splines Connection Generator".In the Dimensions section I choose "Splines Type: ANSI B92.2M - 37.5 deg, Fillet Root, Side Fit, 26 x 1.00 x 38 x 5H/5h" and change the Length to 38 mm.
3. In the Shaft Groove section I use Create new, and I push the Reference 1 button that turns blue, I then select the od feature from the model and I get an error(see attached pic "error1.jpg).
I changed the 26.9mm od to be 27mm and it still gave me the error.

Ok so in previous version if you have an object selected, and hit F4, ( to urn on and off Wireframe display). you could have and object selected, without wireframe showing, or showing if you prefer.
This option seems to have been removed, or moved in 2014.
Illustrator 15.1/CS5 on Mac used to display selected text in reverse and would show handles for text on a path. Now it does neither.

I am trying to get back some of my work that was "lost" when a crash accured. I had 16 blocks (all the same) inserted into my map at the correct locations. I recovered the drawing but noticed that the blocks weren't displaying. I conducted a quick select for the layer which they're on; it stated 16 items were selected (but they are not displaying). While they are still "selected" I checked the properties & it stated all the correct information (quantity, block name, color, layer, scale, etc...). I made sure all layers associated with the block were not frozen. So it's acting as though they're still in the drawing, but aren't displaying...

I'm trying to get Lightroom to display only the photos I select in Grid View in the film strip but
I recently upgraded to LR5 from LR4.1. I have seen on several occasions where the selected image in the Develop Module does not appear. I can move back to the LIbrary view and the image appears, but when I switch back to the Develop Module, the image disappears and only a black box appears (dark grey really). This seems to happen after I have deleted flagged files using the ALT-Backspace shortcut. This has happeded when I deleted while in the Library and Develop Module, but does not happen every time. I have disabled the "Show photo on Mouse Over" view option. Prior to that, the preview window shows the selected or moused over photo.
The only thing I can do to get the develop module to work again is to restart Lightroom. It is very annoying when trying to go through 4000 photos!
i got Inventor recently, and i've been working on a model of a longboard just to teach myself how to use the tools in Inventor. right now i'm trying to color areas for the griptape pattern so i drew the 2D pattern and projected it onto the 3D model of the longboard. but when i tried to split the faces of the model along the projected pattern only a few of the projected lines split the faces. for other faces i kept getting these errors:

When trying to cut out a piece of an image such as with cmd shift J with anti aliasing turned on, there is a gap between the cut out and the new image about as wide as the marquee. If I turn anti aliasing off there is no longer a gap, but then I have a very jagged cut out, since may of the pieces I'm cutting out are circular. Is there anyway to still get a smooth edged cut out without the gap?

Whenever I add a stroke to text it never stays straight edged like the text, it becomes more rounded. Question is, is there a way to stroke the text with the edges staying straight instead of rounded without having to just draw a box around it or something?
Here's a picture of what I'm going for, I'm fine with making a box around the text (there are other characters, rounded characters like an "O"), but it would be a big time saver if there was a way to do it quicker.
Stroke in Photoshop is on the left, desired effect is on the right. The letter "i" might be a bad example, however the effect I'm looking for is a stroke keeping the shape of the text rather than rounding itself.
