Transparent single atoms when rendering stereoimages

Hi, i'm rendering some peptides structures that have single magnesium and manganese atoms in frame, and when I save the images as a stereopair, the atoms render as transparent, with protein ribbon showing through. I've tried several different colors on this, I think it's just a bug. The tips of sidechains also are transparent where the atoms are showing. I"m using the windows 64 bit build, in 1.7, downloaded today. -- Rebecca Swett Wayne State University 357 Chemistry Detroit, MI 48201 Lab Phone 313-577-0552 Cell Phone 906-235-0768

Hi Rebecca, This is almost certainly a graphics driver bug, and the best chance at fixing it is to update the graphics driver on your system. It also helps us if you report a bug as Elaine suggested because then we know which graphics driver has the problem and can advise others. Tom
