dumb question but...
have you turned OFF "Limit open gl polygons"? :)
Yup, I've gone through all of the display settings and nothing makes a difference on this... I wish it was just that though.
As for my hardware configuration, my main machine (and the one the grabs are from) is a Mac Pro 2x 3.0GHz Dual-Core Xeon,16GB RAM, ATI Radeon X1900 XT 512MB. I've also tried 7.4 on the Mac Pro I keep in my office at work that has the same issue and it's a 2x 2.26GHz Quad-Core Xeon,12GB RAM, NVIDIA GeForce GT120 512MB. I don't recall their specific configs, but I also tried a later model G5 and my three current laptops - two 15" MacBook Pros and a 13" MacBook - none of which worked better or worse than my main machine. That said, I truly think there is an issue with the software as that's a pretty reasonable hardware spread to have the same issues on across the board.
All I'm asking for here is for e-on to acknowledge the issues and get them fixed. This is not a $15 piece of shareware that I'm trying to get something fixed on, this is a pretty expensive piece of software I paid $395 to upgrade from Vue 6 Infinite to Vue 7 Infinite and now that they've apparently got some of the issues working in 7.5, they want another $295 for me to upgrade again!? A quick look at their online store and you'll see that upgrading from Vue 6 Infinite to 7.5 Infinite is just $395, so basically I could have saved the four bills from my upgrade to 7, used them to upgrade directly to 7.5 and be money ahead. I guess they figure I paid early so that I could 'enjoy' using version 7 all this time, yet it's really done little more than give me a few more gray hairs and played a part-time role as a renderer for Vue 6.
I still don't know if 7.5 is that much better, but at this point it does actually display the scene correctly and that certainly has me holding out hope for my favorite application. I just wish e-on would make good on all of the non-functional upgrades to 7 made by faithful Mac users as there are quite a few of us that feel pretty screwed at this point. :unsure:
