trouble creating quad file from qidf

2017-01-11 by paulmwhiting@...

It's been a while since I've done this, so I need a refresher. I'll start by saying I'm in Windows 10. I go to Tools, then Curve Creator, then load a qidf file and then I click on Show Curve. I'm familiar with the bug in GUI, that the curve doesn't show and instead I get a rotating blue circle. I can't find the Quad file, either in Virtual Store or in the Quad folder. I don't think I need Administrator rights to these folders because I've "unhidden" them.

I must be doing something wrong. Like I say, I haven't had to do this for quite some time.

Thanks all!

Found the problem... I could have deleted my post but thought others might benefit from my mistake. My qidf PRINTER line had the Epson 1430 in it and my quad file ended up in my 1430 quad file list. So I simply edited my qidf's PRINTER line to read 1400.

Simple now, in retrospect. 20-20 hindsight!
