Is this a video card issue?
-
I haven't seen that sort of thing. Would you e-mail the model to me with the same view where you get it? I'll try it and see what happens.
-
I will, but unfortunately I'm late to leave my house- I'll do it tonight,Thanks!
-
OK. Later.
-
It could be something as simple as having the precision set too large and snap to on, so the endpoint sort of jumps away.
-
is it an inference line or an axis line? has to be inference with that blue line being where it is. I'm with Box. check your units. make sure they are a nice scale to be working in. like 1/8" or 1/4" for furniture. Dave's our resident furniture builder though, he'd know better what units to use.
-
I usually work with the precision to 1/64", after all, this is fine woodworking:). I tried changing it to 1/32 or 1/16, and I don't work with "snap" on. Didn't seem to make a difference either way. Something I didn't think to mention earlier, though perhaps it's related- occasionally when surfing the web, if I change web pages, part of the previous web page will briefly linger on the new web page until I scroll or move on that page. For example, if I'm doing a Google search, when I click on a link, part of the Google Search page (a few lines or a portion of the screen) will linger on the new page. Perhaps it's related?
Any help is appreciated... -
When we said to check the units it was because it might have been set to something quite large. like 1 foot. those lower units won't make any difference. I'm not familiar with the GT 520. I use two GTX 470's I would suggest a larger video card if that one isn't 1 gig. But have never seen this issue. SO not sure it's a graphic issue.

Krisidious- Thanks. I'll really show my ignorance here. Which specification is the "1 gig" you refer to? Below are the specifications for this card. Thanks for the help.

I think we sorted the problem with the inferencing last night. It appears to be a case of an unresolvable inference. The line's direction is locked in the red direction and the cursor is placed on a face that would never intersect with the line no matter how long the line, not how big the face. This isn't a video card issue but as I told Michael last night, more like a divide-by-zero sort of thing.

I agree Dave, and thanks again. I only asked about the card specs to educate myself, and thought it might help with the other issue I was having; knowing right next to nothing is often problematic when dealing with computers!
-
No worries, Michael. I just thought we should answer the original question. Ignorance can be bliss but you're right when it comes to computers.
-
Glad you got it figured out. Looks like you do have a 1 gig card.
here's our two cards compared. remember that I have two of them and that mine are like 4-5 years old and pretty outdated. if you have an extra $300 bucks laying around, a GTX 770 would be smokin fast.Your Card
