Hello Jody,
That is exactly what the problem was. Now in what way does turning off Hardware acceleration affect the performance of SU?
I am on the iMac 27" With the latest OSX 10.6.2
Graphics card is: ATI Radeon HD 4850 512 Mb
8Gb Ram
screen resolution of these big ones is: 2560 x 1440
Many thanks Jody for your advise
Filip K.
No I haven't, as stated before I don't use SU much at the moment and I bought a new iMac 27" about a months ago, which is a real work horse by itself, slices through PS as if some of my 250Mb image files are butter.
Don't get me wrong I love SU and have done so from the beginning. I wish I had the work for it, but at the moment it is all photography.
One day I will upgrade to v7 Pro, when the work roles in. This seems to occur spasmodically and suddenly I am into SU every day again, looking forward to it.
Thanks
Filip K.
Downloaded v7 and it works great. Prints are normal. So with your help we have pinpointed it to v6 being buggy.
Great process and thanks for your help.
Filip K.
Twinkle, twinkle. That's a really good idea, why didn't I think of that. Ill keep you up to date tomorrow, its getting late
Filip K.
Once again many thanks for your effort, but I had the same result again, which means that the file is OK, but that either SU or my machine has a bug in relation to SU.
The interesting thing is that the results are always different with different lines missing at different times.
As usual you guys at this community rock. I don't know why this SU community has always stood out so much from other forums. I don't know but it has always been such a tight and friendly bunch all the way back to when I started with SU which was version 2.1. At least 8 years back. I never was a great contributor, but in my active days I was following this forum religiously.
Keep it up folks
Filip K.
Thanks Gaieus for your effort, but since I am still on V6 I can't open yours.
I tried a diff style, but with the same result. I may have to approach the Google SU guys, see what they have to say.
Again much appreciated.
Filip K.
Thanks Gaieus,
This is still a version 6 file as I am not using SU to much lately.

Found the attachment tab. Here is the sample. Just a simple 2D drawing of a shed which needs some lining.
All the window and door lines have disappeared, but the dimensions are still there, however the dimension lines have disappeared as well.
Bugger
Filip K.
Wow that's what I call quick response, Thanks mate, but no just ordinary lines with profiles turned off.
How do I attach a image in this forum?
Filip
Whenever I am exporting a 2d drawing out of SU some of the lines disappear in the jpeg,dng or tiff drawing. Increasing the ppi makes no diff.
I recently changed my computer from an Apple Mac Book Pro to an Imac. so maybe the large screen resolution of the 27" screen (2560 x 1440) has something to do with it, but if someone has a better idea of how to solve this problem I would be very grateful.
Also in the chance over I lost my floating toolbar, which now is part of the top of screen bar and I want it back. Can some one help?
Many Thanks
Filip K.
There is another program called "ISHOWYU', which more or less offers the same services as the one discussed here.
I just bought it as it is only $20.00, but I haven't had the chance to do much with it yet, so I don't know the differences yet. Look for yourself.
Looks great though

So you know about photo booth, even though you are on a window system, you poor sod.
I just upgraded, 2 weeks ago, from an old 17"powerbook to the very latest superduper Mac book Pro. What an eye opener.
It's a major fight between me an my daughter of who is going to use photobooth.
a lot of very weird pictures and video's have been sent around the place.
With your website I was wondering if I should use iWeb and iMac to make my own. As Usual every little bit helps.
It is so easy to do through those programs.

Here is an other I was considering as an avatar. I shows me as I truly am "the alien"
Just a nice balmy 28c here in Queensland, AU.
For the first time in a long time we are having a nice typical subtropical humid summer. For many summers its been to hot and to dry, maybe climate chance is going to work in our favor. I am just loving it at the moment.
He Ross, I see you have switched to a Mac, congratulations in order, but what happened to your beloved Xara. I haven't looked at their site for ages. Do they have an Apple version now at last.
Filip K.
G'day solo,
Thanks for the quick reply.
That looks like a great machine. To expensive for me, especially her in Aussieland.
I have never seen a product sold her so much more expensive as it is in the US. It's just a plain rip-off.
The basic 3d navigator sells for 99 there, but about 240 here, while there is only about 15cents diff. between your dollar and ours. (85c US)
It's the first time I have encountered this. I have tried to buy it through amazon and such places, but are blocked to sell them here.
Both Australian resellers sell them for about the same price, so I don't know, but that smacks of collusion in my opinion.
I had a look at your website, are you getting any work through it???
Filip k.
G'day everyone,
Just became a member for the first time in this new forum. I used to visit the old one a lot, but was only a sporadic contributor.
Anyway i did a search on the 3d mouse from 3d Connexion and wasn't able to find any discussion on it.
http://www.3dconnexion.com/3dmouse/what_is_3dmouse.php
There was a discussion on another 3d mouse, which regrettably is only for a windows system and I am on a Mac.
Does this mean nobody knows about this mouse. If anybody does then let us know about it.
I like to try one myself, but they are so expensive here in Australia. I may have to get a friend to pick one up in the US next time he goes there.
