Question

can't enable background drawing in Isodraw 7.3

I'm running Isodraw 7.3 on Windows 7. Under Preferences/Redraw, the 'use buffered drawing' radio button is not available (greyed out) so I'm unable to display cursor info (snap, element,etc) - any suggestions?

Try to switch off OpenGL to turn 'buffered drawing' on. (You need to close all open documents first.)

Scott Allshouse to the rescue....

If your "use buffered drawing" radio button is greyed out and you are running Windows 7:

right click desktop - select "personalize" - select "Windows 7 Basic Desktop".

Problem solved - Thanks again, Scott!

It seems that just need to disable the Windows 7 Aero theme.
