Glitch with Photoworks Materials...
(OP)
Hello all, I am in a real bind and any help would be greatly appreciated. Been using Photoworks for over a year now, so I thought I knew it pretty well. But all of a sudden, my renderings started coming out with all materials in "Light Concrete". I've tried EVERYthing, from changing materials (of components, faces, features, etc) to changing Photoworks settings, and regardless of what setting I've chosen or what material the Material Manager tree says I've applied, the resulting render is always in all concrete.
Even when I click "Show Solidworks Colors in Photoworks", I still get a rendering with the Photoworks light concrete material. Nothing I can do, short of clicking "Render Contours Only," will get rid of the concrete in my renderings. Driving me crazy. Any suggestions? Should I just try to reinstall it or something... by the way, I'm using Solidworks '07.

I'm stumped. If you were using 2008 I had a good idea what the issue was. I've personally never seen this happen but I seem to recall someone else e-mailing me about this issue. His problem turned out to be his network location for his custom materials being in correct.
This sounds like a stupis question I know....have you tried rebooting you're machine?
