Workspace background is black?

Hi! I know there are already three threads about this, but they're all at least a year old, and none actually fixed the issue for me, so I'm shooting my shot:
The workspace background is black. 
I can't see any measurements, as they are Also black. 
I've tried everything I can think--I've made sure Chrome uses the higher performance graphics processor, I've reinstalled the drivers for it, I've made my Chrome theme the default, I've put Windows 10 into light mode, I've disabled all my extensions, I've gone into Incognito, I've updated my computer, I've restarted, I've updated Java. Nothing. I'm panicking a bit here, as I'm using this site for a high school class, and remote learning means I'm pretty much screwed if I can't figure this out. Is there any known way to fix this? 

I'm using a Surface Book (the first one), Windows 10 2004 version, and version 85.0.4183.102 of Chrome, if it helps. Here's a screenshot, as well:

Thank you for your time!

    Is Chrome up to date? If it is urgent, try another browser. The last thread said to update Java but I've no idea why that would have any effect.

    Gotcha! Apparently Edge does the job, so I'm alright now (although I still am curious why this is happening. Still leaving the check in the off chance it somehow pinpoints the issue). Thank you both for the help though!

    Hi @sam_cole321,

    Thank you for posting the results of the check page. From what I can see it does not look like Chrome is using your graphics processor. The GL renderer says "Google SwiftShader", this is a software renderer. If you have a graphics card I would expect to see it's name. For example something like AMD / NVidia or Intel. The issue you are seeing could be a bug with Google SwiftShader. Furthermore the rendering performance is low as well.

    You may want to ensure Chrome is able to correctly use your graphics card. 

    Paul

    For posterity: I didn't have hardware acceleration enabled. If you're also having the issue, make sure it's turned on ^^

    Thanks - I had the same issue with a black background today. Previously no problems on the same browser but today ... black and slow.

    I tried brynjar's suggestion and it worked perfectly! T

    Thanks for posting!!!!

    For those that have had this issue, can you type this in Chrome and then past the results back here in this thread: chrome://gpu

    I'm looking to see if there are trends with the graphics cards involved. Ideally we don't want users to have to enable the override software rendering list if possible.

    I had the same black background issue and brynjar's post about overriding the software rendering list solved the problem for now.

    I could post the massive sheet of specs, but this is a 4-5 year old machine and the graphics processor I've listed here (below), hopefully that gives some insight.  Firefox works great without troubles, this is just for chrome and I even made sure to install the 64-bit version.  This machine has a really bastardized win 7 to win 10 upgrade on it, so its probably not worth the time to dig through its fairly unusual settings.

    AMD Radeon(TM) R7 250

    In summary, Chrome doesn't like supporting older graphics cards and drivers, so overriding the software rendering list overcomes this. Firefox is not so picky.

    Just for the record, pitchin' in with what solved it for me. Had the same problem as OP. Black and slow.

    Went to

    chrome://flags/

    and enabled "Override software rendering list".

    Restart and all worked like a charm, test shows graphic card and not Swiftshader.

    :)


    Worked like a charm. thanks a looooooooooooooooooooooot

    @PeteYodis @NeilCooke I enabled the "Override software rendering list" on my main computer, but my background is still black. However on my school Chromebook, it's perfectly fine. I went to chrome://gpu on both computers, and here's what they say:

    My graphics card for my PC is an AMD Radeon (TM) RX 570 and the driver version is 27.20.2001.9003 if that helps you.

    What is the exact problem, and how do I fix it? Step by step instructions are great if you can provide them. 

    If you need more information, tell me what you need and how I can find it. Also the reason why I prefer to work on my PC, is because the screen is a lot bigger, and I'm able to see what I'm more clearly.

    I had the same issue today. It was acting normally at first and then while I was designing a part, it changed color on me. Not sure why as I hadn't closed/restarted Chrome before it happened. I had already overrided the chrome:flag thing that one person mentioned which fixed my issue (so far). But here's my results:

    • GpuProcessHost: The info collection GPU process exited normally. Everything is okay.
  • bob_lowebob_lowe Member Posts: 1
    For posterity: I didn't have hardware acceleration enabled. If you're also having the issue, make sure it's turned on ^^
    That solved it for me -- thanks for that!

    Thank you @brynjar_andresen!

    @PeteYodis, fyi, this happened to me on VM, with Windows 10 as guest (both Chrome and Edge). Host works fine though! If you still need  my 
    chrome://gpu results, let me know which part (the whole is too long to fit).


  • john_mcclaryjohn_mcclary Member, Developers Posts: 3,890 PRO
    That would have to do with your VM settings. Some do not allow hardware acceleration.

    May I ask why you would run Onshape on a virtual machine? It runs natively on any OS, there is no reason to handicap yourself like that. You will never get as good of performance over the VM as you would on the host machine.

    • lazy_clear_resource_on_first_use: https://crbug.com/dawn/145: Clears resource to zero on first usage. This initializes the resource so that no dirty bits from recycled memory is present in the new resource.
    • use_d3d12_resource_heap_tier2: https://crbug.com/dawn/27: Enable support for resource heap tier 2. Resource heap tier 2 allows mixing of texture and buffers in the same heap. This allows better heap re-use and reduces fragmentation.
    • use_d3d12_render_pass: https://crbug.com/dawn/36: Use the D3D12 render pass API introduced in Windows build 1809 by default. On versions of Windows prior to build 1809, or when this toggle is turned off, Dawn will emulate a render pass.
    • use_d3d12_residency_management: https://crbug.com/dawn/193: Enable residency management. This allows page-in and page-out of resource heaps in GPU memory. This component improves overcommitted performance by keeping the most recently used resources local to the GPU. Turning this component off can cause allocation failures when application memory exceeds physical device memory.
    • disallow_unsafe_apis: http://crbug.com/1138528: Produces validation errors on API entry points or parameter combinations that aren't considered secure yet.

This workaround is enabled by default on all Vulkan drivers to solve an issue in the Vulkan SPEC about the texture-to-texture copies with compressed formats.

    • GpuProcessHost: The info collection GPU process exited normally. Everything is okay.
  • T_RathierT_Rathier Member Posts: 43 EDU
    We replaced all of our CAD workstations this year with Dell Precision 5820 workstations with an nVidia P2200 gpu. Everything has the same image and same components. All software is up to date. Up until now, we have had no problems at all with Onshape using Chrome. This morning four workstations were started by students and they have the black background issue, the rest still have white.

    We have tried all of the fixes above including changing the flag. We are using the latest Chrome and video drivers. It stays black. The students switched to Microsoft Edge and it works fine. We are a chrome-based google suite school so everything is the latest google version. I am on one of the new machines as well, but it works for me. I have no idea how to fix this or why some work and some don't.

    I use my iPhone and my MacBook Pro to work with Onshape and all else. So I’m clueless as far as windows stuff goes

    But about 4 or 5 days ago I happened upon this article. I sure hope it doesn’t have anything to do with what you’re up against
  • john_mcclaryjohn_mcclary Member, Developers Posts: 3,890 PRO
    Did you check cad.onshape.com/check
    To see if their gl render is on the correct gpu? 

    Edge is effectively a better chrome browser. So it shouldn't matter if they use edge. 

    Do you have intel graphics also? If so, check to see if chrome is set to use the nvidia gpu. 
    You may also have to check the windows setting for Chrome's preferred gpu

    Just chipping in to say that also having the same issue on latest Chrome with an ageing desktop. Using Edge as workaround worked for me but I was pretty close to writing off onshape as unusable due to not being able to see any dimensions. Some kind of pop up warning would be good for new users if the "Black Background" condition can be detected.

    The issue was caused by the hardware acceleration being turned off in Chrome. Our IT department had sent out a new windows group policy and didn't turn it on for my systems. Problem solved.

    Just for the record, pitchin' in with what solved it for me. Had the same problem as OP. Black and slow.

    Went to

    chrome://flags/

    and enabled "Override software rendering list".

    Restart and all worked like a charm, test shows graphic card and not Swiftshader.

    :)


    I may actually love you - this totally worked! 👌

    Here it is Feb 2024, OnShape drawings are suddenly in dark mode, and enabling the Chrome setting discussed here does NOT change it back to light mode. I have not been able to find the OnShape setting responsible for activating dark mode, if there is one, but I can't use it - the normal black font for dimensions is almost invisible against the background now. Presumably this is a malfunction and not really dark mode, since in a proper dark mode the text would have to change to a light color or it's useless.

    To fix this I've tried enabling "Override Software Rendering" in Chrome and restarting Chrome, and I've rebooted (Win10). Drawings are still in dark mode. The rest of the site is in normal light mode, only the drawing area is dark. Can anybody help? 

    UPDATE: Works fine on Firefox, so presumably it's a Chrome issue. A solution would be nice but at least Firefox is a good workaround.
