Hi @anthony_perpepaj, here are some instructions for forcing hardware acceleration in Chrome, which is usually the reason WebGL isn't working
Go to chrome://settings
Click the Show advanced settings link
Scroll down to the System section and ensure the Use hardware acceleration when available checkbox is checked
Go to chrome://flags
Ensure that Disable WebGL is disabled (the link should read "Enable").
Relaunch Chrome for any changes to take effect

I'd check Onshape at this point. If it's still not working, you can try to force WebGL hardware rendering via the following:
Go to chrome://flags
Enable the flag called Override software rendering list
Additionally, have you tried running Onshape in another browser like Safari or Firefox?

What version of Mac OS are you running ? If it is really old it might not work
