Hi all. This isn't really a request for help, just wanted to let you know about a little issue I found out today. While testing a box, I installed XSI 2.0.2 on it and checked out how it performed. I did some basic modelling, and everything was fine... until I selected some edges and did Split Edges (With Split Control). The control property box wouldn't show up. I tried it again, thinking I accidently hit Split Edges (Evenly), but still, no control box. I promptly said "wtf?" and tried to find why it wouldnt show up. I uninstalled XSI, installed it on another drive, toyed with some settings, searched around in the install dir for some config file... finally, I found the problem : 60hz. The monitor was at 60hz. It's a 17" test monitor, and it can run 1280x1024 at a maximum refresh rate of 60hz. I lowered the res at 1024x768, this time using 85hz, and the control window popped up just fine.
Don't you guys think it's a weird issue? I'm really curious if it was intended... maybe Softimage are nice enough to not let their users use 60hz, thinking it would hurt their precious eyes Anyway, if anyone has comments/explanations, I'm all ears...
Cheers
