wrong icons under correct tooltips in Inroads

Hi all

Concerning Microstation/inroads and Powerinroads 08.11.09.722 on my HP-Z400 workstation.

In Microstation/Inroads my icons are not correct for the appropriate function, the tooltip however is correct. See examples below. Only in the 'View Surface' toolbar!

  

I've tried to Customize > Reset All but the problem remains. I cannot get it fixed.

I've installed PowerInroads 09.722 and loaded it with example workspace Bentley-Civil-Metric. No customized .xin file or whatever. And also here is this a problem: wrong display of icons, correct tooltip.

What could be wrong? Looking forward for any advice.

Win 7 Ultimate, HP-Z400 Workstation, 24 Gb Ram, Nvidia Quadro 4000.

Thanks in advanced.

  • Hi Jean! I've seen this several times before, and have experienced it myself quite a lot over the years on both Custom Toolbars as well as the standard ones. It usually crops up when moving to a newer version of the software, or after installing a patch. And more than likely has something to do with a new tool being added, or one being removed. Someone may have a 'global' fix for this, but I always find myself going to Tools > Customize and doing a right-click 'Reset' on each individual tool on the toolbar. The 'Reset All' never worked for me in the past. There's probably a Registry entry somewhere that needs to be cleaned up, but I've never spent the time to hunt it down. I highly doubt that it has anything to do with the XIN or even the Workspace.

  • Hi Zen (M)

    Thanks for your reply.
    Glad to hear that I'm not the only one with this problem :)
    The Tools>Customize right-click 'Reset' brings no solution, nor did 'Reset All'.
    I doubt the Registry entry to be on the basis of this problem. I've de-installed Microstation and Inroads several times whit each time a thorough clean-up of all Bentley instances in the Registry. It comes back after each new installation.
    Even PowerInroads was never installed on my computer and after the first installation this mixed-up icons pop-up.
    Could my HP-Z400 be the problem? Bios-update? Or Graphic card driver?

    HTH, Jean
  • Jean, have you right-clicked on the Icon itself on the toolbar or menu. Not selecting the toolbar and doing a 'Reset' on the Tools > Customize dialog. Do it directly on the specific tool icon on the toolbar. That's the only way I've ever been able to restore the correct image.
