BIMX Corrupt - ArchiCad 17 Windows 7

BIMX Corrupt - ArchiCad 17 Windows 7

Marquee on plan > F5 (3D View) > File > Save As - Bimx

When open in BIMX viewer, the view position is fixed with only zoom and rotation of model active. No fly, up, down, directional arrows. All options (Esc) available.

Not a driver issue as BIMX works fine on earlier saves and in other projects. Last action with possible cause for issue - generic axonometric view changed OpenGL to Internal Engine. 3D window setting for save as bimx is set to OpenGL (std).

This has happened before and to resolve, I had to migrate the whole project to a new template.

Thanks

Hey Reto,
In BIMx try pressing the F8 key to change the view - it is a toggle switch.
Press it once lets you explore the model and again to only spin it around.
