Select Tool on LapTop

sswcharlie

Hi

Have asked this some time ago, but not resolved.

On my laptop you can push the select tool ok but the outline does not show when you left click and drag. The only way to select is to place the cursor over the item wanted, use the right click over the object and to get the menu and select all connected.

Is there any tricks to get the 'normal' drag and select ?

Win7
SU7
Toshiba Satellite Pro

Thanks

Charlie, this is almost certainly some video driver/card issue. Try to disable hardware acceleration under Window > Preferences > OpenGL settings.

If it "seems" to solve the problem, first try to update your video driver but if you have some integrated chipset and not a dedicated card, this will probably not solve it.

You can work without hardware acceleration but SU will definitely be slower especially with more complicated models, larger textures and when using shadows and lots of transparent materials.

Hi

Wow, that works ok. Magic. Thanks for that.
It will make things a bit easier.
I will follow up on the driver as well now.

As I said, it is not a real solution if the video system is some "cheap", integrated one - but at least you can work with SU.
