Points are displayed in beautiful detail. Customizable Display ModesĬustomizable viewport display modes produce stunning high-resolution output images at interactive frame rates.Ĭurves are smooth and fast to draw. The results? For most graphics cards, fewer GPU-specific display glitches for more consistent, beautiful, and frequent frames. We are always refining Rhino to keep up with modern hardware and provide consistent and beautiful visuals across a broader range of GPUs. Rhino’s modern display pipeline scales to different OpenGL levels based on the capabilities of your graphics card. (Vector output for printing, PDF, and SVG pay attention to this transparency as well). Any questions, post a comment.7 Display Transparency: All objects (surfaces, meshes, SubD, curves, text, points, hatches and text dots) pay attention to this transparency setting and attempt to draw with blending. However, this dialog will be up and if you don’t click on anything, it will revert back to the original settings! So you won’t have to waste time going through Safe Mode, etc, etc.
When you click Apply, Windows will change the display to what you chose, in which case the screen will go black or blank if it can’t support it. If you simply click OK, you won’t get the dialog shown below whereby Windows will revert back to the original settings if you don’t answer within 15 seconds. Remember, in Windows, when you change your display settings, always click APPLY first. Go ahead and reboot your computer normally and everything should load up fine. Also, you can uncheck the extend my desktop option.įrom the drop down, choose a lower value for the screen refresh rate. Here is also where you can change back your primary monitor to 1 if 2 gave you a blank screen. If the refresh rate is too high, click on the Advanced button or Advanced settings link and then click on the Monitor tab. In Windows 7, you just pick a resolution from the drop down box. This will lower the resolution and allow your monitor to display Windows correctly. In Windows 7/8, you have to choose Screen Resolution.įor screen resolution, move the slide bar over to the LEFT.
Now that you’re in Windows, you can change the resolution or refresh rate by right-clicking on the Desktop, choosing Properties and clicking on the Settings tab. Again, Windows does not automatically detect that there isn’t monitor connected and it won’t revert back to its original settings! The problem that can sometimes occur there is that Windows sends the signal to a different port than where you have your external monitor connected and it will therefore give you the blank screen whenever it loads up. Enable VGA Mode can also be useful for situations where you try to extend your desktop onto another monitor or select another monitor to use as your primary monitor. If for some reason Safe Mode does not work, you can also try selecting Enable VGA Mode. Once you press F8, you’ll be presented with a set of options as shown below: This is usually when you see the manufactures logo and the BIOS being loaded. Safe Mode loads up at a lower resolution and therefore allows you to log in and change the settings back.To start up in Safe Mode, you simply press and hold the F8 key when the computer starts to boot up. Start the computer in Safe Mode – The second way to get back your original display settings is to start up in Safe Mode, which basically loads Windows in a stripped down state.So if you have an old 15 inch monitor and it can’t display 1600×1200, connect the monitor to a newer screen, log into Windows and change the display settings back to what is was originally. I thought it would enable 3D graphics, but after enabling it my monitor went black for 10-20 seconds and came back on normal. Connect computer to a more advanced monitor – One way to see everything again is to simply connect the computer to a monitor that can support a higher resolution. Today I finally went into the Windows Display settings and say this setting '3D Display Mode' unchecked.
