AutoCAD background is not visible or visible according to flexsim version.

I found some strange problem in flexsim 2017.2.3 and 2018 beta after importing autocad as background.

AutoCAD background file is not visible in two version. But that is visible in 2017.0.10 version and Flexsim HC 5.3.2 version.

What's the problem of it?

The autoCAD file is c:\users\documents\flexsim2018 projects\ER_small.dwg.

I captured each screen followed.

What is set in the OpenGL Context on your version 7.2.3 and 18.0.0 beta?

Make sure you aren't using a Core OpenGL graphics context if you want to use the DWG importer: Can't see Model background when on Modern (Core profile) setting

I found the setting to be Modrn(Core Profile).

After I changed to the Core OpenGL graphics context, my issue is solved.

Thanks you Bobo.
