I thought at one time the designer 2.0 had a lithopane view, but I can't seem to find it anymore. Is it still on there?

I disappears if hardware acceleration is set to off. Could that be it?

Try under view - texture - lithopane

It might also have something to do with your graphics card. Litho view requires opengl 2.1 or higher.

Also make sure you turn on "hardware acceleration" ...

So if I don't have a project loaded, I can see the litho option available. When I load a project it goes away. It has worked on this computer in the past.

That is very strange. Have you changed video drivers or display colors? Anything at all changed since it worked? Does it disappear when you start a new project?

As Floyd stated go to preferences, 3D graphics, and turn ON hardware acceleration. Then you will need to close designer and reopen it. Then you need to open a project or start a new one. Once the board appears you show be able to go to the texture icon and select the lithopane view.
