Display 3d in a separate windows is blank SW3D 6.1.2 Linux Mint 19 x64 Nvidia 2060 @ 418.56 When I attempt to display my model 3D in a separate window that window is blank. Flipping back to normal view works fine. Creating a new model works in the separate window. Opening an old one doesn't. I have 3 monitors but am forced to use only one, which is somewhat annoying. Any ideas? |

Flipping back to normal view works fine. Creating a new model works in the separate window. Opening an old one doesn't. I have 3 monitors but am forced to use only one, which is somewhat annoying. Any ideas? I'm using version 6.1.2 on OpenSUSE tumbleweed, x64, proprietary nivida driver 430.14, a quite old GTX 650 Ti, and two monitors. I have no issue with displaying the 3D model in a separate window. However SweetHome3D won't even complete startup unless I modify the startup script and add -Dcom.eteks.sweethome3d.j3d.useOffScreen3DView=true Maybe that might be worth trying. (Put the additional -D parameter anywhere before or after the other -D definitions.) |

Re: Display 3d in a separate windows is blank Running 6.3 and 6.4, once I open in a separate window, it locks everything up. Would love to be able to use my other monitor, too. I wonder if this is the key. I retired from my coding days years ago and never did Java. I am willing to give this a try if someone can point me in the right direction. Thanks. |

If giving "this" a try means you would like to try editing the startup parameters, the process is the similar to the one described for increasing the memory allocated to Java. This is documented in the FAQ, see: How can I adjust the memory used by Sweet Home 3D? in: http://www.sweethome3d.com/faq.jsp Instead of modifying the text described in the FAQ, use a text editor to insert the following: com.eteks.sweethome3d.j3d.useOffScreen3DView=trueBackup the existing file before changing it. I can't be more specific because exactly what needs to be edited varies depending on your operating system. Note, you're not editing Java code, rather you're just altering scripts or config files (similar to mainframe JCL, UNIX shell scripts, or application property files). |
