black screen problem

Post by sikim »

Hi, GID Staff

I installed GID11.0.8 on top of Centos 7 with the graphic card NVIDIA Quadro K2200.
When I tried to create a geometry, the window turned to black screen.
How can I fix it?

Thank you,
Seungil

It seems a typical problem or the graphic card/driver with OpenGL.
Try using OpenGL by software: instead
gid
start
gidx
(this script run GiD using the Mesa graphic library by software)

Have a look to this FAQ: http://www.gidhome.com/component/manual ... s_on_linux

I already tried gidx but it didn't help anything.
Is there any other way to fix this problem?

Thanks,

I realized that "Selection lines by software (emulateFronBuffer)" is a solution for it..

Hi,
this also happens with GiD 12.0.8 or GiD 12.1.8d ?
