Driver, Graphics Card Settings
-
folks, I had some computer issues and ended up needing to reinstall my NVidia driver. It's the correct one for this old machine.
Since then SUp 5 will freeze for over a minute while I'm working, usually while using the Rotate tool, or when orbiting, and I'm wondering if it's because of my settings within SUp,
or maybe the NVidia settings??

Not sure precisely what settings would work better for your machine - but one thing that is very important is that the driver allows Sketchup to tune the settings.
You should find that within the NVidia 'performance and quality' menu, there will be an 'OpenGL' settings section; and within that section an option something like "Allow my application to control these features"
It's important that this option is selected, otherwise any changes that you make inside the SU OpenGL menus may not take effect.Once that is done, I usually rely on trial and error, testing each SU option in turn - there are so many different cards and drivers that it's very hard to advise which options will work best for you.

Yeah Trog, I found that setting in the NVidia C Panel, and it is set to let the 3D application decide.
darn, I need to find out what changed, guess I need to tinker with the SUp settings.
