Hello, I installed carrara and noticed an intersting quirk. When in the vertex modeler, I would select a point and the point would not change color even though the properties panel show that the point was selected. Next I editted the x, y and z coordinated in the properties panel and nothing happenned after i hit return in the coordinate box. As a matter of fact, I had to change settings in the mapping subpanel or click on the views inorder to see the change take effect. So, any idea of what is going on? Is it a properties setting? Is it a bug? This makes carrara useless to me sense I use the properties panel for exact placement of model vertex points. I sent eovia a bug report but this is such a fundamental problem that it should have been found before. P.S. I had this problem before and after the patch.

It may be a matter of hardware ... Are you using the OpenGL renderer ?

I have experienced this problem under: OpenGL DirectX Software All three methods. It does appear as though there is some sort of update trigger that is not being fired.

What is your hardware ? Make sure you got the latest drivers for your card and your chipset . I know there has been problems with ATI cards and VIA chipsets . Does it blink when you dolly the camera ? I hope it helps. litst

Compaq Workstation 420 Dual CPU. NVidia 32M GeForce2 GTS This problem did not exist under Carrara Studio 1.0 or 1.1 When I am in the assemble room, changes to attributes in the properties panel are immediate. The problem is only in the Model room. And only when using the vertex modeller. Also, if you highlight a polygon of four vertices then the properties window displays quadrilateral subpanel but all the coordinates are 0.00 There is definately a bug in the software if it only malfunctions in one type of modeller. I emailled a bug report to eovia. Hopefully they will investigate the problem. If anyone else has an idea, please let me know how to make this important to eovia. The new registration route for carrara makes it troublesome to uninstall 2.0 and reinstall 1.1 but I may have no choice. We carrara users appear to be few here at renderosity. I shall personal address this issue, possibly in the magazine.....

Hi, I just added this bug to our bug database. It should be fixed in the next patch. Charles
