After much searching I found an answer, but no solution to my problem. I will post it here in case it might help someone else….

Apparently its an issue that is specific to certain macs' graphics card.
If anyone has resolved it since that post, I would like to hear it, thanks.

Just downloaded apprentice version and have no real serious issues… but afew minor quirks that I would like to see if anyone has resolved.

For example if I create a plane in my viewport…

1 - I can only view the plane in wireframe mode… When I choose Smooth Shaded or Smooth Wire Shaded… the plane turns invisible. I can drag select it, so it is still there, but invisible. When I return to wireframe view then I can see its wireframe.

2 - Every once in a while my viewport turns black, and I have to drag-resize the interface once or twice before it returns to the normal grey.

3 - Same thing with my ability to pan and zoom. About a few times an hour I will try to zoom in and out and the scroll button will will do nothing. resizing my interface will solve the issue.


Im wondering if there are some houdini preferences that have to be manipulated?
I'm running a mac 10.6.6…
