Code: [Select]

What OpenGL Version is needed in order to run metashape?

Hello Simon,

Are you starting it via ./metashape.sh?

Also are you working locally or via any kind of remote connection?

Yes

Also are you working locally or via any kind of remote connection?

No, sitting in front of the machine.


Interesting fact: I had the same issues with Photoscan 1.4.1.

Restarting the machine solved the issue...
I did some upgrades in that session, which I cant reproduce anymore...

Have a nice weekend!

Hello Simon,

OK. If the problem will re-appear, please let me know and provide the glxinfo output and information regarding the graphic card model and method of GPU drivers installation.
