When I open my previously saved drawing, the 3D window works just fine. Except for the 2D. It wouldn't show my drawing, and I cannot draw anything new.

Please help!

Hi there,

I'd need to see the file. Please, zip the file and attach it to your post.
Also, inform the name and version number of your TFP program.

Hi Patricia,

Thank you so much for responding. I am using a trial version of TFP Home & Landscape PRO 2019 version 20.0.0.1016.

Is there any other way I can share the file with you aside from using winzip?

Hi there,

Upload the file to Dropbox https://www.dropbox.com/ (it is free) and send me the link via Private Message.

Hope this helps.

Hi there,

I received and checked your file.
Open your file => Go to 2D => Set Zoom => 30% => you will find the house at the bottom of the workspace.
TFP opens the files in the center of the workspace => this is the reason why you see a "white screen" (because the house is at the bottom)

Some notes for a better understanding of the issues and a suggestion:
- The setting => Design => Lot properties define the general workspace.
- I noticed that you set the Lot properties value = 75'x 180' => I am assuming that these are the dimensions of your property. If so, a suggestion: you can set a bigger workspace and define your property using the Property Lines (Landscape tab) .

Hope this helps.

Thank you so much Patricia.

I still haven't tried it yet. Got busy with real life work... ahhh... Will check it soon enough and will let you know if it worked.

Keep you posted. I appreciate the help.
