diagnostic shading doesn't run...help??!

[peek_a_bo]

hello people.

i try to learn studiotools 13. but i have a little problem:studiotools works fine but the hardware shade/ diagnostic shade/ direct render doesn't run.
i click on the button but nothing is doing on the modell...

has anyone experience with this problem?
Can anyone help?

thanks...!

hardware: a vaio notebook, nvidia geforce go 7400, 1 gb

I'm not really keen on ST by now, but is it possible that the graphics-cards doesn't support hardware OGL shading?

hi peek,

do you have any kind of other "shading" modes working ? like curvature analysis or multi color or random color ?

had a look just a few minutes ago because i was thinking shading and analysis could be mixed up in some cases but hmm, look weird. Did you assign some material to the surfaces you're trying to turn shading on ?

did you try with a basic scene with a single surface ?

tell me about it and i hope we can find a solution

cheers
