(Cura 5.3.1 - Mac)horizontal slider in Preview is gone

[MichlBo 0]

Hi all,

I don't know how ich managed to "hide" the horizontal slider in Cura preview.

Went through the settings without success and Google was not helpful either 😞

 

My Cura Version is 5.3.1 running on a MacBook Pro with Apple silicone M1.

That happens when Cura is running in "compatibility mode" . You may have set the preference to "Force layer view in compatibility mode" option in the General preferences in Cura.

Isso acontece quando o Cura está rodando em “modo de compatibilidade”. Você pode ter definido a preferência para a opção "Forçar visualização da camada em modo de compatibilidade" nas preferências Gerais do Cura.

Mesmo com essa opção selecionada (ou não), nada mudou, continua sem a barra horizontal. Teria alguma outra solução?

My answer was in response to a MacOS user. On MacOS, it is common for people to turn on that option to prevent a specific rendering issue in the layer view. 

 

If the "force layer view in compatibility mode" option is not set and you still get layer view in compatibility mode - as you do - then your computer is not giving Cura the OpenGL context Cura needs. To show the full layerview, Cura needs an OpenGL 4.1 context. It could be that your GPU does not support that, or you need to install another driver.
