Can someone please help?
Ive been watching A:M tutorials for past few months, even read the manual online.
I now have a new computer running win 7 and brand new A:M. Both 2 days old YAY!
Ive used Maya and Bryce for years and dying to get into A:M now.
For some reason my render Bounding Box shows solid (or last rendered pic underneath) when i drag a box.
This also happens when selecting splines or points.
I looked thru tools/options but couldnt find anything.
I also tried running A:M in XP mode 32 bit and had same solid bounding box.
Can anyone help?
Thank you
Michael

Welcome to A:M!

Thankyou VERY much.
First I tried the Open GL to Direct X and that did it. (still dont understand any of this but learning more everyday)
In Maya i only made still pics. So this is my first animation program where it's not too overwhelming to begin in.
Feels more comfortable diving in now i have a transparent bounding box. You Rock!

On My PC OpenGL is faster for real-time, so you might want to try the other tricks and see if you can get OpenGL 100%.

Remember you have to restart A:M after a Direct3D<->OpenGL change.
