Intel GPU driver update 26.20.100.6708 on windows breaks Qt GUI --> FIXED by UPGRADING intel drivers
Using ParaView on windows with the 26.20.100.6708 <= intel driver < 26.20.100.7528 can lead to a broken GUI.
Steps to reproduce :
- Run windows with the intel driver and chipset (driver version may matter, tbd)
- Run ParaView with the intel driver
- Show the color editor dock widget (which contains a QVTKOpenGLNativeWidget)
- Open a datafile
- GUI looks like this or is all black :
A workaround is to use the actual GPU of the laptop instead of the intel chipset, or to upgrade your driver after 26.20.100.7528 or to not upgrade the GPU driver
