"furniture icons in plan" option disable

[sankari]

Hi,
Does anybody know why in File->preferences; the "furniture icons in plan" is disable?
There i cannot choose between "catalog icons" or "top view". By defaut is seleced "catalog icons" but i would like to change to the other.

This is the only option that shows disable, the others look OK.

Thank you.

This option is disabled if your graphics configuration doesn't allow it.
Read the FAQ for more information.

I had same problem when running sweethome3d on Ubuntu and fixed it:

Code: Select all

$ dpkg -L sweethome3d

Which gave me file /usr/share/sweethome3d/sweethome3d.sh which is used to start sweethome3d. I read that file and removed following line:

Code: Select all

 -Dcom.eteks.sweethome3d.j3d.checkOffScreenSupport=false \

It fixed my problem, I was able to enable top view after this change.

So maybe when everything is OK but swh3d does not check "off screen support" it does not allow to enable that feature.
