I am able to have shaded views in v28 - there may be an issue with your installation, or some other problem.
An uninstall / re-install may be worth trying, or submit a support ticket and include a package created from a drawing which exhibits this issue.

Thanks, David for your response. I did an uninstall and a fresh install but the problem persists. I entered a support ticket.
Thanks David, that did the trick.

Support said it is inter-design relations. I deleted them and now I can shade views in drawing. Thanks, DavidJ

I was using this color scheme. I changed to a darker color and it is now working.

Bolsover, as David mentioned, it is not a hardware issue, nor is it solvable by a workaround. Submit a ticket and they will issue you a modified dll.

Bug report for the mirror in the assembly environment.
Bug Creation Mode
1 I create part1: A bolt with a cosmetic thread.
2 I make a circular repetition
3 I mirror the original bolt and the three repetitions.
BUG: The cosmetic thread appears correct in only one of the 4 parts.
I enclose package and ask others to check.
Thank you
Francesco

Edit your Mirror. Select a part in the dialog box, and then deselect "Create other handed copy" and change the orientation to "orientation 2 of 4." Do this for each part and it should correct it.

This error happens even with a new drawing trying to insert an existing BOM, which is annoying when I've created the BOM with a bunch of notes in it already.
Can be worked around by creating a new one in the drawing, closing it, then renaming the one created in the drawing so it complains about not finding it, and replacing it with the existing one.
If that makes sense?

I created a drawing yesterday and saved to M-Files vault. On opening it this morning, nearly all ribbon icons are greyed out.
Tried to F5 refresh it but no change.
Closed and reopen the file and everything is good again.
This has happened a few times now with V28. I thought it may have been related to files changing from v27 to v28 but this one was native to 28.

Can I remind people - if you have an issue that requires attention - raise a support ticket https://www.alibre.com/alibre-customer-support-ticket-entry/
That way, you'll be sure it gets logged and there will be an easy way for Alibre to ask for extra detail if needed (which all gets logged in one place).
Post here if you wish, but this is not a substitute for a support ticket.

I'm getting that one too. I worked around it by saving the drawing and BOM into a different folder (renaming the BOM to the name of the BOM I'm going to replace it with) and once you've saved it, delete the newly created BOM, move the drawing to it's destination folder and then open it. When it can't find the BOM where it's supposed to be, point it at the one you originally intended and you're in business. It's a bit of a faff but it works.

I work around it a similar way, by just adding an "A" suffix to the BOM I want to replace, open the drawing and when it complains about not finding it, replace it with the one I want, save the drawing, then delete the suffix from the original one if its used in another drawing.

I still get an error when using a script to align to an assembly's plane. This was a bug in v27 too.

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<string>", line 26, in <module>
TypeError: expected IAssembled, got Assembly#IInstance_1$1
If you want to play with the script, here it is. Bonus points if you can tell who's script I cannibalized by the variable names!
Code:
class MyBaseAssem(Assembly, IInstance):
def GetOccurrence(self):
return self._Assembly.ActiveOccurrence
start_assem = CurrentAssembly()
assy = MyBaseAssem(str(start_assem.Name), False)
Win = Windows()
Root = Global.Root
ThisSess = Root.TopmostSession
Occ = ThisSess.RootOccurrence
SelectedSet = ThisSess.SelectedObjects
Occs = Occ.Occurrences
for r in range(0,SelectedSet.Count):
SelectedItem = SelectedSet.Item(r)
SelectedOcc = SelectedItem.Occurrence
print('Rooting ' + SelectedOcc.Name)
prt = assy.GetPart(SelectedOcc.Name)
assy.AddAlignConstraint(0, prt, prt.XYPlane, assy, assy.XYPlane)
assy.AddAlignConstraint(0, prt, prt.XAxis, assy, assy.XAxis)
