when i open my patches in beta20/21 always the render-windows appears - but the patch windows are “hidden”…
patch works but i cant see the patch window.
pressing STRG+TAB the patch-window (it should appear on top in the list, isnt?) is there - but withous a name (there are 2 empty fields on top - then the render-windows appears)
minimize vvvv and restoring seems, that the patch window goes to the middle and gets 1px small…
strange thing - it is in all my patches and worked perfect till last week…
i´m on a vista x64-environment
any ideas to restore my patches?
thanks ahead
EDIT
little update
copied the patch and the whole vvvv-directory to another pc (xp based) - works fine!
so - i think - the problem is not inside vvvv. any ideas? ;)
if you have some patches opening it is definitely not the 3dsmax problem…ahm…strange.
when you open the patch in a text editor you see its xml description. there the first BOUNDS tag has top and left attributes you could check. take the values divided by 15 to get the value in pixels. you could also change those to 0 and see if the patch opens then…
frank: have directx9.0c and slimDX installed… as i mentioned, when i start over a new project - all windows are there and everything works fine (also the demo in arg.txt)
joreg:
tried your hint. my first thoughts was also about the resolution… but - i copied a “header” from an working file to my patch… doesnt work - nothing changed :(
setting top & left to 0 doesnt work…
the funny thing is: in this patch are subpatches - if i open the subpatches seperately - they work!
damn… any other tricks i can try? ;)
the funny thing is, that the patch is working. i see everything in the render-window correctly…
same problem as mie, but can anyone tell me how to open a new patch to do the documentations? It´s the first time I try to open vvvv and unfortunately it doesn´t work.
Clicking the tab at the bottom line also on my vista machine it seems as the window is only 1 pix small…well it´s not there…only the arcs-file…
