Version 2.298 online.

Everything in the dispayed image on the project screen, so both the gears and the plates.  It's a display issue, going back to the non-circular gear section shows them just fine.  It looks like the display scale gets altered somehow and I can't figure out how to zoom the display to make them visible again.

<ctrl>wheel will resize them, but as it does so the image will move off to the side and off screen. &nbsp;Trying to drag it back gets the plate, but not the gears.

I've attached the project file. &nbsp;It's probably something obvious and I'm having another senior moment.

After writing this I exited and restarted Gearotic again, and opened the gth file; this time the gears and shifted plate reappeared in the project screen, and I was able to use them.&nbsp; Weird, so just change this into a low priority request for fit to display window button.&nbsp; I tried a couple times to recreate the symptoms on the desktop machine, after updating to 2.2990.

Kirk:

&nbsp; Its possible they were just way off center, makign rotation and such near impossible. If you see it again, use the perspective to look from the left or top and see if you can see them. If so, try dragging them back with move gear.. Ill take a look at this shortly and see what I see.

It had zoomed way out, think trying to see the Mooselake Manor from the moon or so.&nbsp; The gears and plates had been separated, but only by a few gear diameters, and nowhere near the amount of the zoom.&nbsp; Headlee didn't help from any direction, as it was too tiny to see, and I could zoom them back in to see a tiny something, but couldn't get them to stay in the display area and I lost pieces (like I only grabbed one gear or plate at a time) when I tried to move them back.

Anyway, it resolved itself after the second reload.&nbsp; I may not have exited the program after the first save and open (thought I did, but...), but definitely did the second time.&nbsp; I feel bad enough about not being sure about the first restart I won't say even anything about these very interesting looking eccentric gears from the previously posted museum link.

Nice to know it resolved itself. The program does try to rationalize things as its loading a project.. maybe that caught it. :)

Hello All:

&nbsp;Been a nice quiet summer. I havent posted for a bit, so I thought Id post an update for those
that joined us this summer. Summer is my down time when I program without having to worry
about what its for , basically I do personal projects and research. Often, it appears in Gearotic
in the following season. This summer I wanted to investigate 3d imagery from Webcams, which I
did and released earlier this summer, it will be updated this fall.
&nbsp; &nbsp; I am also working on Auggie, an Augmented machine controller, heres a snapshot of some of
the progress, Auggie will enter this fall as a wizard authoring program. Im off on real vacation in a
couple of weeks to Spain, then back at work on Gearotic , and I suspect Ill parallel work on Auggie
to get it ready to run my laser.


Thx
