CII 4.2 Output Graphics

R, I am having that intermittant graphics problem on the output again, but doggone if I can remember the workaround. Going out and back in to the output processor isn't working. Can you refresh my memory please?

Do one of the recent builds fix this?

Are you talking about the problem where you go into graphics and you get a big blank gray screen with the tool bar buttons vertically on the left? If so, this only occurs on Windows 95 and is caused by having only a single row of tool bar buttons. Drag the tool bar back to the top, then reduce the width of the window to cut off the last button. Exit the graphics and then re-enter the graphics. This should fix the problem.

This is the issue where sometimes when you go into output graphics the deformed shapes and other graphical outputs work, then sometimes you go into output graphics and when you click on deformed shapes or some other graphical output the model is there but the output graphics (such as the deformed shaped) don't actually show up.

I thought I heard you mention a work around to this (e.g. get out of Caesar, then go back in?????).

Everyone here is drawing a blank over this one. No one here has experienced this problem or fielded a question similar to this.

Is there anything you can offer to narrow the problem down. Is this job specific? Is this load case specific? Is this operating system specific?
