3D Preview and Watch 3D not working in Dynamo 0.9.0.3067 #5818

Closed drussell-sundt closed 8 years ago

drussell-sundt commented 8 years ago

Upgraded from 0.8.1.1942 to 09.0.3067 and the 3D Preview is no longer working. Works fine in 0.8.1.1942.

tcacciuto commented 8 years ago

I have the same. I'm dealining with this issue from long time....

jnealb commented 8 years ago

@drussell-sundt @tcacciuto Can we ask to please try with the current 9.1 daily build?

drussell-sundt commented 8 years ago

@jnealb Where can I find the daily build?

jnealb commented 8 years ago

http://dynamobim.org/download/

drussell-sundt commented 8 years ago

The download from the site is still release 0.9.0.3067

jnealb commented 8 years ago

scroll down to "Pre-release" for current builds

drussell-sundt commented 8 years ago

Downloaded 0.9.1.3370 and still doesn't show the 3D preview. The watch 3D doesn't work either.

jnealb commented 8 years ago

What graphics card do you have? Can you please run Dxdiag and capture the output in a file and send to us?

drussell-sundt commented 8 years ago

I'm running a AMD FirePro M4150 graphics card in my laptop. Attached is the output file. DxDiag.txt

mjkkirschner commented 8 years ago

@drussell-sundt - sounds like you may have an integrated GPU in your laptop(in addition to the FirePro), try finding the graphics settings for your card and forcing high performance mode for Dynamo

Hi all, i have a same problem ! With another stations (PC, WorkStation and Portable) (dynamo 0.9 and 0.9.1)

I don't understand why ?

Had this problem once I tried 0.9.0 & 0.9.1 with my AMD Radeon 6490M card (switchable graphics).

It only got to show geometry in the background 3D preview once I changed graphics settings in the BIOS setup from 'DYNAMIC' to 'FIXED' - however the display was crappy, even with view quality set to high - completely no Anti-Aliasing.

So I just gave up as there are no updates for my Card - and it is quite unstable in that state.

I am currently using 0.8.1 and I plan on getting a new machine soon - hopefully Nvidia card. On 28 Dec 2015 19:53, "RhymOne" notifications@github.com wrote:

I have three station with Nvidia is not as long as it works ! do we have an idea of ​​where the bug can come?

Best

RhymOne commented 8 years ago

I solved this problem. Thanks to KULKUL here: http://dynamobim.org/forums/topic/3d-object-is-not-parametric/#post-35368

With new version of dynamo: deactivate background preview of revit.

Best

drussell-sundt commented 8 years ago

The link that RhymONe posted solved the problem for me when running Dynamo from Revit. However when running Dynamo from the desktop I still can't get the 3D preview to show. At least I have a workflow I can use now.

Please see the first question of the FAQ

elnaze commented 8 years ago

Hi. I figure out a very important things and I want to say to anyone that don't work their background 3d preview dynamo. only only open dynamo in revit, no dynamo that is in desktop. open revit and go to "manage" tab (in 2017 ver) maybe "add in" tab in lower ver and open dynamo. Today I decide to learn dynamo and I had this problem in the first step but figure out it. I hope that it was helpful.

ikeough commented 8 years ago

@elnaze Thanks for the clarification. I'll add a question to the FAQ to cover this.

BreannaD commented 7 years ago

After several months of fighting with this on a Dell Precision 3510 with Switchable Graphics (Intel integrated and AMD GPU), I finally narrowed down our issue.

The solution, for us, was actually the OPPOSITE to what a lot of people are suggesting.... We had to point Dynamo to use the Integrated Intel card, because it was the AMD card that was not displaying correctly!

Many people have been suggesting to assign Dynamo (program is located at C:\Program Files\Dynamo\Dynamo Revit\x.x\DynamoSandbox.exe) to "High Performance/Maximize Performance" in your GPU settings, but actually what we needed to do was select "Power Save/Low Performance", which then points the program to the integrated card instead. You can access these settings by right clicking on the desktop and selecting "AMD graphics settings" or "nVidia Control Panel" (may vary by model) and navigating to the application settings. You may need to add DynamoSandbox.exe if it's not already there.

If anyone else has tried to point Dynamo to their nVidia/AMD card without avail, try doing the opposite. Worked for me.

Also worth noting: this only works when you open DynamoSandbox.exe, not through Revit. Obviously we want Revit to use the higher end GPU, so if you open Dynamo through Revit it thinks you still want to use the same GPU you've assigned to Revit. But, if you open Dynamo via the shortcut in C:\Program Files\Dynamo\Dynamo Revit\x.x\DynamoSandbox.exe then it works. If you are fixing this issue for a client, make sure they are aware of this.

@BreannaD Thank you for your perseverance; we will add this to the FAQ.

BreannaD commented 7 years ago

@jnealb You are most welcome, please note I've edited my post to include some more specific details that are pretty important to note.

Thanks

This is really helpful for me. I was headache before I saw this post. Thank you so much for your sharing and this is really great help!

I changed my ADM Radeon Settings (Dynamo set the High Performance)

I used this following patch then run as administrator for DynamoSandbox.exe file. Then I solve this problem.
