Hey,

I am running LW 7.5 with a PNY Nvidia Quadro FX500 w/ std. "analog display" drivers. I have a problem with the graphics not updating sometimes. I'll have to manually select the viewports display type - i.e. wireframe, etc. That updates it but it bugs me, especially since it's my new 'cheap-but-stout' box I built myself recently.

I am thinking two things... Is there a software setting somewhere in Lightwave OR if someone knows the Quadro line, a setting from the vast driver.

I was thinking if I had to I could map F5 or another key to a command that would refresh it. I could map it to my "current hack."

I'd really appreciate some help. :)

Look at the dynamic update tab in the general options, mayby it's off, also check the bounding box threshold, Put it real high.

Hope this help. :)
