Topic: Repetier Problem

For some reason I can not add a stl to repetier to view on the editor.  It doesn't matter what stl I choose it just says printer bed full, too many objects on printer bed for automatic packing.  Another thing that is strange is that the 3d view windows ghosts any other image that comes in front of it from my computer, until I click remove object.  I havn't found any other infor on this error.  Thanks.

Re: Repetier Problem

What OS are you using, and what graphics card. That is sounding like an OpenGL issue, and you may need to update/reinstall your video drivers

I have the same error message, but it goes away when I click on the 'ok' button. This seems to only be the situation with the "Solidoodle" version of the software. I installed the "not solidoodle" version and the problem is gone.

Yea, I get the same error message.  But my .STL loads anyway.  I just click ok and do what I need to do.

Re: Repetier Problem

I forget where it is but under settings(printer setting I think) there is an option about checking if there is a dump area. Uncheck that and the message goes away.
