HI everyone,

I hope very much someone knows how to solve this.

I'm just working myself through the "Object Creation for Beginners" tutorial by Moune. (It's using a dining table, "The Talking Table", to clone, change mesh and surface and so on.) The tutorial is very comprehensible, I cloned the object, saved all the files, now I'm trying to extract the mesh so I can fiddle around with it.

that's where it goes bad.

Problem:

I get the "Resource Tree" window, I click on the file "Geometric Data Container", I should have a "Resrouce List" window, and I don't have it. There's no little icon or tab for it among the other tabs at the bottom and right side of SimPE, either.


What I tried so far:

- I tried opening/closing every single tab and icon in the icon bars, where all the icons are (Object workshop, Finder, Resource Tree, Plugin View and so on).
- I used the "Window" drop-down menu at the top of SimPE to check "Resource List". I can check it, and uncheck it, but neither the window nor the icon show up.
- closed SimPE, started the whole tutorial again from scratch.
- took a screen shot just in case that might help. Here is:



I hope very much someone here can help me, because this is so frustrating. There's so much custom content I'd love to create, and so far I understand everything in the tutorials, but I won't get far if I can't so much as extract the package file for a mesh!

thanks in advance. :lovestruc

Try resetting the layout. One of those buttons along there does that, but you can also do it via the Preferences menu.

Yay, working! You, sir or madam, are a scholar, a ["gentleman", "lady" or recruit's choice of adress] and a genius. Thanks ever!
