Text disappearing in 2d
Text disappearing in 2d
(OP)
Hi
I wondered if anyone can help. Just upgraded my workstation and I've noticed my text keeps disappearing every time I stop panning or zooming.
When I pan or zoom, all the dims and text can be seen very clearly, as soon as I stop they all disappear.
I'm using Catia V5r20
AMD FirePro W5100 (fireGL V)
I'm assuming it's a graphic card issue but can't find anyone else reporting this problem. I've updated to the latest driver but have had no luck.
Anyone help?

RE: Text disappearing in 2d
Try to delete your CATSettings (except those for your CATIA customization) and restart CATIA. See what is going on. You can search here in forum topics about this.

RE: Text disappearing in 2d
I'm not sure exactly what files to delete there, can you help me? I've had a look in these forums but cannot find anything, guess the title is not as obvious as I need it to be.

There are lot of explanations and how CATSettings can impact your work.

RE: Text disappearing in 2d
I can't see anything that looks like my problem, maybe there is but I can't find it.
All these issues are around the tool boxes and specific user settings. That I understand, however, this is a graphic glitch of sorts.
I bow to your superior knowledge on this matter though and will try to find a way to delete CATSettings.
RE: Text disappearing in 2d
OK, I managed to delet catsettings and opened a drawing, again, I cannot read the annotation or dimensions unless I'm panning. I'm convinced this is a graphic driver issue.
RE: Text disappearing in 2d
But something else to try, as I suspect it might be the font: Try changing the font on some of the annotations, and see if that makes a difference. Check the properties and see if there's something there (Bold, Italic, etc) that might be causing the problem.
Also, try changing the STANDARD with File + Page Setup.
If you haven't already checked this, go to TOOLS + OPTIONS and GENERAL + DISPLAY and reset the PERFOMANCE options by using the bottom-left icon and choosing RESET THIS TABPAGE.
