      Hello/Help! Downloaded Su7 and can't figure out why there are no faces showing. Seems to be in wire-frame mode. When i select the different styles there is no change in the wire-frame look. Even if i import a model from SU6 it still is stick figures, however, i can push and pull and select faces. I have a Gateway (uhhg) running Vista (uhhhhg) with 2gig ram. Everything worked fine in SU6. Thanks in advance, David

      when am i where?

        Hi David,

        To make a quick test,go to Window >Preferences > OpenGL and try to play with the settings (especially turning off Hardware acceleration).

            No David,

            This is just a diagnostic test that there is something wrong with your video card/driver.

            You should update your driver to be fully compatible with OpenGL (thus SU) in order to work better on large models as well.
