<div dir="ltr">What operating system is this on? I think it's some platform specific code in Qt that causes OpenGL context to be initialized before the QVTKOpenGLWidget is created and since it defaults to OpenGL 2.1, it doesn't end up providing correct OpenGL context for VTK's rendering. But I haven't looking into it too deeply.</div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Tue, Aug 1, 2017 at 2:12 PM, Olivier Commowick <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:olivier.commowick@inria.fr" target="_blank">olivier.commowick@inria.fr</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div class="HOEnZb"><div class="h5"><div style="word-wrap:break-word;line-break:after-white-space"><div><div>Thanks for the answer, it actually solves the problem, but I do not get completely why.
