Have just upgraded to Windows 10 which may be the cause of the problem. There is probably a very simple solution which has escaped me. Have a complex model with my house and garden but in the last few days have found am unable to edit components (after exploding them) when using the pencil (line) …

Isn’t that in the Style edit?

And from the view menu, edges, profiles, back faces etc

No - have checked and Edges are checked

Without seeing an image or model we are just guessing. Have you checked you Graphic Card driver?

Is there a way of uploading a model. What should I check on the graphic card driver?

Drag and drop or 7th icon from the left at the top of the message box. 3 meg limit for the forum upload.

I have tried repeatedly to upload the skp (128 Kb) file but the screen freezes. Am also unable to drag and drop the skp image. I think you really need to see the original skp file dont you not a screen dump. Thanks for your continuing interest and help

If it is an issue with your graphics adapter, nothing amiss will show up in the model itself, whereas a screen shot will show us what you are seeing. [image] BrianMH255: Am also unable to drag and drop the skp image Exactly what are you trying; exactly what happens? -Gully

I have pasted a screen shot into windows paint and saved it as a jpeg file. Have then tried to drag the file across. Anoth attempt in whih I dragged the skp file across using explorer.
