[GiDlist] Why I cann't open my GID

[Zhiwei Niu]

Hi,everyone
today I installed my computer with Chinese WINDOWSXP, and then resintall GID Ver 6.3.0b. When i double the GID icon to open it, there is a error information window showed to tell me "SwapBuffers failed". After i click ok, the GID was closed. why is it?

best wishes to you

Try to deactivate the graphic card acceleration from Windows:

Screen properties- Configuration - Advanced settings... - Solve problems -
Hardware acceleration: None

In other hand, the chinese language can also create in GiD some encoding
problem (using filenames with non ascii characters). It is more recommended
for example to use a english XP.

Hello,

I am currently using GiD 7.1 and I have trouble using the command

FilesPrint to fileEPS Vectorial.

The picture is correctly exported but the legend of the figure and its title are not (the characters are modified and placed at the wrong position). Is this a known bug?

Thanks

have you tried with the latest drivers for your graphic card?
which graphic card are you using?
The latest GiD version is 7.2 ( ftp://gid.cimne.upc.es/pub/gid/Windows/).
have you tried with 'Start menu'-programs-GiD(...)-gid safe mode ?

You can always change to 256 colors.

bye
