Hello,
I have been working with the latest Rhino 7, for some time. All was fine, then today, the material preview thumbs, became all black. After some trials, even doing with a brand new document, noticed that is something related with the lighting:
I could try to work with the option of simple lighting, but it only affects the main preview and the quality of it is very pour…
Moreover, this demo that I am showing is already made with Rhino reinstalled, with nothing else besides starting a new document! I cannot figure out why this has happened? I did also reinstalled the Nvidia Drivers! Before was fine, and now!?!
Please help me!
Here is my system info:
