    An error has occurred while drawing the contents of this window

    After using the program for a few weeks it appeared the error message "An error has occurred while drawingthe contents of this window" only when I open the 3D view. I reset the Windows user profile and everything is back to normal operation. Today has come out again this error screen. Video drivers are certified and the board is a Nvidea Quadro and normally I have no problems. To test I created a new user and everything works fine.What could alter the software related to user profile? Thk!

    If you have not already, I would try disabling (or enabling, if already disabled) Hardware Acceleration in the Revit Options.

     

    I would also try clearing out the Temp folder on the machine. You can do this by hitting Windows+R, entering %temp%, then clearing out as many files as you can.

    If I disable the hardware acceleration works but is not the solution, we work with very large projects and we have to use the video card acceleration. I have tried deleting temp files but does not work. thanks

    I have seen that the error occurs simply by clicking a family because it can not display the graphic in the upper left "property" with the type of item eg. wall.

    Thk.
