ArcScene won't open saved map

DeclanEmery — Thu, 25 Apr 2013 14:23:32 GMT

Hi, I hope I'm in the right place I haven't used these forums before. I have two different maps created in ArcScene and previously saved and re-opened with no problems until today. I am able to open one of these maps but when I go to open the other it briefly opens but then automatically minimises ArcScene to the taskbar where it cannot be reopened. Has anyone had a similar issue??
I have other versions of the map save one usb devices but the same issue occurs. Hopefully someone can help as I am in the closing stages of my Masters and this is important.

Thanks
Declan

How long have you waited? Opening a very large scene can take a long time.

I've had it open all day, it flashes open then minimises again and won't reopen.

Are you opening the scenes on a different computer? Since you are using a USB then I guess probably. I would consider remaking the scene, be sure you are saving relative paths and then try it again. There have been issues if you are using TINs with AMD/Radeon video cards, which may be part of the issue. What you are encountering could be video card related or perhaps path to data related. That is where I would start.
