I am working on cityengine 2015.2 on a Macbook Pro, with extended display on a Dell Monitor.
When I open cityengine and view it on the monitor, I have problems selecting objects in my scene. When I click an object, another object somewhere far away is selected. There seems to be a problem with display projections. Everything else in the navigation panes and windows works okay on the monitor. The problem is only in the viewport. It also works okay if I place my cityengine window on my Mac screen. This issue only occurs on the extended screen when working in the viewport.
Also, I have been using CityEngine 2014.1 for while with the exact same setup and never encountered this issue before. So I am guessing there might be some compatibility issue with 2015.2
I really don't want to work on my tiny Mac screen, so I would appreciate any pointers. Thanks!
Hello Tanvi Maheshwari,
Thank you for your report.
I tested CityEngine 2015.2 for the issue you described, but was unable to reproduce. Selecting shapes in the viewport was accurate on the external monitor.
Here is my setup:
Could you please provide more information on your system?
Also have a look at the compatibility settings for Retina Macs in OS X:
Hello Thomas
Thanks for your quick response. The problem has resolved itself, and I am not sure what went wrong in the first place. But I'm glad it worked out.
