[Paraview] ParaView unable to adjust object opacity

[Yu Xiang]

Thanks very much for your reply. My computer has two graphic cards: Intel HD Graphics 4000 and NVIDA NVS 5400M, respectively. I switch to 5.3 and no longer have those two problems.

These are most likely caused by a known bug in 5.4.0 with some graphics hardware that we are trying to fix in 5.4.1. Can you let us know what your gpu is? Also try 5.3 and let us know if both problems work there.

 

Thanks

Hi,

 

I downloaded the ParaView Binary Installers (ParaView-5.4.0-Qt5-OpenGL2-Windows-64bit.exe) from https://www.paraview.org/download/ and installed it on my Thinkpad T430 which is running Windows 10. I was using ParaView for the first time and found two things puzzling:

1.       When I open ParaView, the default window looks like the following. There is a small black square on the bottom left corner in RenderView1 (circled in red). I couldn’t figure out why it showed up there.



2.       Then I opened the first Example Visualization and selected Clip2 under can.ex2. When I tried to adjust the Opacity under Styling in the Properties tab, any value other than 1 will make the object in the RenderView1 window disappear like the following:



I tried other examples, and similar things happened. I couldn’t figure out why.

 

Does anybody know what might be going on and how I can fix it?

 

Thanks,

Yu
