I'm using Google Sketchup on ubuntu 12.04 with Wine 1.4. It works flawlessly out of the box, but anti-aliasing is causing some problems.
I can override anti-aliasing settings using the nVidia X Server Settings utility, which results in a great-looking image. However, the view doesn't seem to update properly. It's a bit hard to explain, but if I do something (e.g. zooming) the changes won't appear in the view until I take another action. in other words, there seems to be a delay of one "action". Take this example.
- The mouse wheel is moved one notch to zoom in one step. Nothing happens.
- An object is selected by clicking. The new zoom is rendered but the selection box doesn't appear.
- An empty area is clicked. The selection box appears.
Is there something that I can do to solve the problem? Could I force the GPU to redraw that view with a certain interval, or is there some other solution?
I really like anti-aliasing, but it's hard to use when drawing stuff.
