Default Something wrong with my flexsim 5

I cannot put object, for example, crane, in the middle of the grided background. When I try to put it, I can find it in the tree map, but the object is missed somewhere. Another problem is I cannot drag and move the grided background. Does somebody have the same problem before? My graphic card is Quadro 2000M and my OS is Windows 7. My Flexsim 4 works well on the same machine.

Thanks!

This sounds very much like a graphics card problem.
Check when you run in compatibality mode (File | global preferences | graphics) if your problems are gone. In that case it is your driver. So go check on the website of nvidia or the supplier of your pc

Thanks! Steven.

I have already figured out the problem. The problem comes from the default setting of graphics card. In my computer, Flexsim 5 only works well in NVIDIA card, and Flexsim 4 only works well in integrated graphic card.
(Right click Flexsim icon --> Run with graphics processor --> Chang default graphics processor --> .......)

Hao,

in the advanced settings of the Nvidia Control Panel, you can define for each single program which graphics card to use. So you can just doubleclick the program as usual and the graphics card will be chosen based on these settings.

Good luck
