3D Bumpmap preview.....it's gone!

What a pity...'cause when it works it works good!

Thanks for info Xhris...let's believe it will be fixed or something even better will be added...then you can have some fun creating yet another 'bump map' tutorial.

I've been playing with this since you raised it. I managed to get it starting to appear with me, but not found a way to stop it yet. What I have found though now it's started, is that if when you first load up the bump map dialogue and the progress bar appears shortly after, if you click and drag once in the blue square area of the dialogue, then click and drag again but hold the mouse, after several seconds, you get preview ability back; so a possible workaround.

Xhris, I even tried your workaround with our hamster and couldn't get it to work! [kiddin', of course]

Seriously, a bit more detail on how you go about it... I tried every combo of left-mouse, right-mouse, and so-forth....
the progress bar just stands there laughing at me.

thanks,

I find that once it starts, if I restart my whole computer, it goes away. Does a computer restart fix it for you?
