Hi,

I hope someone can help me out with this ...

I'm using PLE 4.5 and it's working perfectly on my machine. However when I try and view the vertices on a poly shape (Select shape, RMB, drag to Vertex), they don't show. I believe they should appear as small purple boxes which turn yellow on selection. I've checked the masks and they are turned on. I'm just completely baffled.
I currently use 3ds Max 4 and vertices in that program do show, so I don't believe it's my graphics card.

I'm baffled, can anyone help please ?

in 'window->settings/preferences->preferences there is a part about Display->polygons
maybe you find something there that's not normal. Or you could try restore default settings from the Edit menu.

hope this helps you.

Thanks for your suggestions but I have tried this and makes no difference. I think it must be my Graphics Card although this is OpenGL enabled.

I had a problem with my graphics card drivers whenever I was using the Paint Effects brush.. (it would leave artifacts of the red circle all over my object) but I updated my drivers and it's gone...

what kind of Graphics Card do you have?

Prophet 4500. It's OpenGL enabled and works fine on my home machine with 3ds Max 4.
Granted it's a realtive cheap product. Would you advise an upgrade ?

Thank you,

Cleo
