Xsection display problem in Creo Parametric 1.0

[MartinHanak]

When I create Xsection in a part (in Creo Parametric 1.0 M010), then activate it and make it visible, I'll receive unexpected result. See two attached pictures. I guess it is a bug. What do you think about it ?

I agree also I saw that solid model looks empty if you go to visibility in Creo!

not having any problems on x64 - can you post the part?

I forget to test the problem with config.pro option graphics win32_gdi ...

When I set this option then Xsection is displayed correctly (in Creo Parametric 1.0 M010).

This means that the problem is related to OPENGL graphics and I have to find the right driver for my graphic card.

CREOp seems to be heavier on the graphics card - it defaults to transparency ON and uses this for mouse-over highliting - its faster with transparency off but solid highliting is unusable.

The graphics engine appears to be new and buggy - if I turn transparency off I cant get it back on via Model Display, have to go to the config.pro file and change it. Anti-aliasing (smooth lines) has a mind of its own as well - its fantastic in drawing mode when it works, but frequently switchs off for some unknown reason.

In Creo Parametric 2.0 PTC give us brand new xsection enviroment which also replace pure visibility function!

Enjoy it!
