Hi guys!

Its my first post here.

I´m having problem with cura 4.0.0 when I slice. 

How you can see in the picture, the play button dont appear in the layer mode (red circle) and the very bad quality view in the layer mode (blue circle). I can´t see the wall, in fill and nothing with quality.

Whats is happing?

Cura 4.0.0
Creality CR10S S5
Windows 10
GPU NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560 Ti  
16 GB ram
Intel I5

That's because your layerview is in compatibility mode. This happens because of two reasons; You either selected this in preferences or your graphics card doesn't support opengl 4.1. 

 

It could be that your computer has decided to use the onboard graphics card instead of your "real" graphics card, which could cause this. Most drivers have an option to force that the GPU is used for certain programs, but that is something you need to setup yourself.

Nallath, you were right!

My old GPU did not have an opengl 4.1.

 

I changed my GPU card and now, it works fine.

 

Thank you!
