Unfortunately, when I try to add the active X control to my picture nothing happens. A few weeks ago I have participated in a Siemens course regarding WinCC v8 and this was working properly. I was wondering is there something which needs to be installed additionally to use the 3d Control. I would appreciate any help regarding this problem. BR, Alex

For my prior experiments another Demo project was used as well. When I open the picture with 3D Control Object in Graphics Designer the object is displayed like white rectangle and text "Unknown object". Therefore, I suppose some additional setting or installation is missing in my case, but I cannot figure out what. BR, Alex Attachment 3D Control.PNG (502 Downloads)
