Good Day,
I sometimes am having some graphics problems. For example, see attached screenshot. I placed a gantry into an assembly and it leaves a 'ghost' image behind. When I go under options and change from say 'smoother' to 'smooth' the problem goes away. Any way to avoid this totally?
My specs:
Inventor Professional 2014, 64 bit edition, I've got an HP Z400 desktop which is a 3.2GHz Processor with 4 cores, 12 GB RAM. NVIDIA Quadro 4000 graphics card.
I never had this problem with 2012, nor 2013, same computer, same settings which I always import.
Thanks,
Adrian
I have the same problem
I have a quadro 4000m with latest drivers from nvidia
Did you solve this issue ?
Aren't you glad you went with an expensive graphics card?
ha ha ha ha..
Seems with every new release the Quadro guys always have graphic artifacts.... Have you updated Inventor to latest service pack/hotfix or whatever they call them now?
I think there a big graphics problem with Inventor 2014, lots of issues related to graphics and screen display. Anyways, i too have the ghosting effect in the working model, I typically do a couple orbit maneuvers or save the assembly and they seem to go away. My drawings don't carry over the "ghosting" which is the more important thing.
There is a thread around here about realistic view rendering, that goes on about speckling models after the rendering is done.
Something not right about the graphics portion in this release. Hopefully SP1 will fix "Everything" due out soon I hear...
Good Luck!
Another trick I use is try switching the visual style from Shaded to Shaded with edges or something, seems to work sometimes, not a solid fix, but a simple workaround.
Good Luck!
Hi,
SP1 will help with some of the graphics issues but not all of them, that should be released by end of day today. This ghosting, as you've seen, can be addressed by changing to one of the other graphics view modes, but eventually it will return. Another option is to go to Application Options, Hardware & change to compatibility or software modes, but if you have very large assemblies then you may see performance degradation.
This is an issue that we're still investigating in conjunction with nvidia & also AMD/ATI.
Thanks,
Chris

Hey Chris,
When Inventor 2014 was developed and compiled, reviewed and released, did the bugs and issues exist for the developers? I understand that users of Inventor each have there own workstation setups, and therefore you include compatibility options within Inventor. But what to the developers use in terms of a workstation? They must use Inventor on its highests settings and review the software for glitches, bugs etc... I don't understand why you said in your post, your working with nVidia and AMD/ATI to work on a solution? If the issues were only with gaming cards, this would be acceptable (in some terms), but I can say confidently, that even the most expensive "professional" graphics cards are displaying the same behavior as the gaming cards.
TL;DR - in Short, what are the developers/testers using before releasing new versions?? AutoDesk could save a lot of headaches for people if they knew what systems would be the absolute ideal for running Inventor...
Thanks
I just saw this issue for the first time. I can make it go away by changing my application options from (Hardware), Performance to Quality. This occurs when I try to drag a sub-assembly. I also noticed that when I zoom in/out the ghost will go away, but when I zoom back, it will reappear.
Check that - - - - it does not stay away with the Quality setting. But changing the setting to something different makes it go away temporarily.
I am using 2014 SP1. My graphics card is a GTX250 (327.23 driver) on a Win 7x64 system.

It's a shame that this problem still exists. I saw it today in Version 2016 SP1 and a Quadro K4200 with newest drivers.
Not sure who to blame here NVIDIA or Autodesk?
Why do we buy this graphic cards?
Kind regards

yeah.. why did you buy that card..
No problems here with my non-quadro card.. ha ha ha.. sucker
Luckily im not the one who paid for it. Otherwise I would probably be pretty mad about it 🙂
