Small problems (and not the least) since I switched to solidworks 2019. When creating a view or even changing the view scale in MEP, my screen turns gray and I can't do anything. If I close without saving and reopen it goes back to normal. If I have the misfortune to save, closing and opening again the screen is always gray.
For your information, my graphics card is up to date and the performance of my machine are OK.
On both of them and it doesn't happen all the time but we only moved to 2019 on Monday of this week so I don't have enough hindsight. By the way, on the post of my college it does the same with the same plans.
I confirm that if you have a maintenance contract you can download the SP1-0, but I realize I coated you with a big layer of error by talking about SP02 which is not available. (Not banging your head !!)
It's this little sentence that I have mail interpreted which is a given example for reinstalling it during an upgrade Sorry
Specify this property only when updating to a Service Pack release within an existing major release (for example, updating an existing SOLIDWORKS 2019 SP01 installation to SOLIDWORKS 2019 SP02).
