[Manifold-l] problem with Terrain: no 3D-view

[Graeme Greenwood]

Hard to know Harald - in the surface dialogue when choosing the palette etc,
are you sure you're applying it (the black downward facing icon) in addition
to choosing it? 

The other (and possibly more common) possibility which comes to mind is your
graphics card - read the help doco on performance; a good card with good
drivers and plenty of RAM (256+) on board is pretty much essential. 

How big is the surface?

Hi,


sorry for the stupid question, but I can not figure out what I am doing
wrong.

The landscape in the terrain window is entirely black. I can only see
structures
if I choose "wireframe". And there are no changes if I am choosing another
palette or texture: It is only black... (except the sky, of course).  The 2D
view of the data is excellent.

Thanks a lot,

Harald
