Hi,

check Editor options in AS-tools.

EditorSettings

If you do not have option to open content in graphic editor, then very likely you will need to reinstall mappView.

What version of AS and mappView do you have? did you have any error during installation?

Hi!

It’s important to know which mapp View version you are using. Layout graphic editor was not released until 5.16.

If you are using previous version you only could open it in text format. Otherwise, follow Jaroslav’s suggestions.
