Axis indicator fails to display

Hello All

I've had Simplify3d for a number of weeks now. Ever since day one, my axis indicator has never appeared on my build space. Regardless of whether the icon on the sidebar is active or not or the setting changed in the "view" menu, the indicator has never appeared.

Last weekend, I installed the Win 10 technical preview and found I didn't like it. When I went back to Win 8.1, I happened to fire up Simplify3d (reinstalling my software) and the axis indicator appeared.

Once I updated to the most recent version of OpenGL, the indicator disappeared once again. This tells me that it's an issue with OpenGL.

Anyone have any ideas? We are supposed to be running the most recent version of OpenGL according to what is stated during the Simplify3d install. Confusing.

Cheers,

John

Re: Axis indicator fails to display

That for sure sounds like a bad graphics driver. I would uninstall it or go look for a new one

Re: Axis indicator fails to display

I reinstalled my graphics driver and still no axis display. Oh well. I would be happy with a simple "front" indicator on the build space like in the attachment (XYZware).
