3d viewer invisible duct
« on: Oct 29, 2009, 19:02:37 PM »
In the 3d viewer my duct is invisible until I hover over it then it shows up briefly, the only thing that shows up is the connectors, any ideas?
Thanks

All the Duct and fittings show up in the Items tab I just can't see them in the 3D Viewer

??

I fingered it out, my SA Duct was white on a white background, I just changed my 3D Viewer's
background to Black.

Next question, how the heck do you set up and use EST?? Should only take a couple hours to be
up and running right?

Oh yeah....is actually a never ending process....you'll always find something that will need tweaking or massaging....

I have been working with EST since August of '08. I estimated my first job in February of '09 and I still have a fair amount of work that needs to be done to get this thing working like we would like. I have been doing the majority of my takeoffs in designline.
