Clicking on the sun shader icon clears the drawing window and greys out options/icons in datacad. The only thing I can do is use the min/max icons to resize the dc window. Looks like sun shader is opening off monitors. I have dual 24" screens. Have tried holding down shift whilst clicking the ss icon. Does ss show in task manager as I can't see anything that looks like it may be ss.

I have just installed ver 15.04.01.05 (SE) but the problem remains. So replaced the dcadwin.msg, dcadwin.lbl, SSHCore.dll, and SunShaderNX.dll files with the ones found with the lastest update.

Tried starting Dcad with shift key held down

Tried a new default drawing.

I've noticed recently that when opening SunShader it seems opens behind Dcad, so I have to Alt-Tab, Shift Alt-Tab to actually see screen.

Thanks Had tried that but there's no ss tab to go to which makes me think it's not opening off screen as it would show as a tile when alt+tab is used.

I notice when I use Object Viewer that the drawing in the dcad window stays. If I click ss the drawing disappears, almost makes me think it's crashing the drawing.
