Paraview still (during past 16 months) keeps crashing on Windows 7 with Intel® HD Graphics 4600.
I am astonished, how Paraview team did not do anything to fix this issue, when it appeared in the late 2016, but makes it worse with every release!
Paraview seems to be just totally incompatible with 3D graphics provided by Intel official drivers for Intel® HD Graphics 4600 core. In the past it was crashing when calling just some 3D glyph filters.
But this new version 5.5.0 x64 crashes just upon pushing the "glyph" button in the toolbar. First it makes Graphics driver crash, go blank, and restart - next, I see the "paraview has crashed" sign. So it is not "partially" usable now. Now it became COMPLETELY UNUSABLE!
