Flyout FeatureManager Design Tree not expanding

Flyout FeatureManager Design Tree not expanding

(OP)
Hi,

I am having this weird problem with the Flyout FeatureManager Design Tree. When I am either editing a feature or in a command, the Flyout FeatureManager Design Tree will not expand when I click on the "+" icon. It is creating a huge hindrance at the moment, without the ability to select items off the tree. I am using Solidworks 2010.

Thanks


RE: Flyout FeatureManager Design Tree not expanding

Have you closed & restarted SW?
Have you rebooted?
Are you having any problem with mouse selection in other areas or programs?
Have you changed anything recently? (Windows Update, graphics driver, mouse driver, etc)

Hi CBL,

I had done all the typical restart/reboot routine but with no avail. And I have no problems with any other areas.

My company did upgrade my Windows to the x64 version. It was a routine (re)install for Solidworks and it fully updated (SP5.0) with any problems. The only thing I can think of is to reinstall Solidworks again but I would like to avoid that if i can.

Thanks

While it shouldn't make a difference, are you using the x64 version of SolidWorks?

Was the video card driver upgraded to the SW approved 64 bit version?
Which card are you using?
