Re: [Paraview] Object rendering problem on Windows 7 with Paraview 5.2
Thanks for the suggestions! I downloaded the drivers directly from ATI instead of letting Windows do the update and that appears to have fixed the problem I was seeing in Paraview 5.2.

Re: [Paraview] Object rendering problem on Windows 7 with Paraview 5.2
That card should be fine. I have seen this type of bug before and updating the driver has fixed it. Specifically updating the driver to the latest from ATI (sometimes computer vendors stop updating their copies). Another way to check what the problem is, is to stick a polydata normals filter in the pipeline and then see if it works.

Re: [Paraview] Object rendering problem on Windows 7 with Paraview 5.2
Hi Bill, Let's keep the discussion on the mailing list so others can benefit from and contribute to the conversation. Ken, Is the ATI Radeon HD 4200 too old for the OpenGL2 backend? It's circa 2010, I believe. It looks like it can support OpenGL 3.2 with Shader 4.1. I'm wondering if there is maybe a subtle shader compilation issue on the ATI hardware?

Hi Bill, It sounds like the rendering backend isn't fully supported on your graphics card/driver combo. What kind of card is it? Are you getting any error messages?

[Paraview] Object rendering problem on Windows 7 with Paraview 5.2
I have been using Paraview 4 on my windows 7 computer for quite a while now but wanted to upgrade to Paraview 5. Installation appeared to work fine but when I display a model I am seeing a rendering problem that I don't see in Paraview 4. If Representation=Surface and Coloring=Solid Color, the object is black regardless of how the color is defined. If Rep=Surface with Edges, the edges do appear over the black object. If I select one of the results vectors under Coloring, the color bar is displayed and looks correct; but the object remains black. I know that the graphics card in the computer is somewhat old ( the drivers are the latest for the device) but have no idea if that is related to the problem I'm seeing. I'm wondering if others have encountered this problem or if there is some setting I can change to avoid it.
