Dynamo's background is not visible

Hi everyone, I hope someone can help me with this issue: my dynamo’s background is not visible if I launch the software from Revit; however the background is visible if I launch the program from the sandbox ? I am using Win 10 and my graphic card is Radeon AMD catalyst … I did check the similar threads in the forum and I did follow all suggested solutions but none did actually work !

3d background preview no available

hi everyone, i have this big problem about 3d background preview and i didn’T find any solution. [image] I reinstalled older versions and the new ones, but nothing. i still have the problem. I noticed that someone solved it, but for me nothing worked. https://forum.dynamobim.com/t/no-background-3d-preview/4963 I realize that probably the problem is related to the graphic acceleration, but i don’t have any idea about how to fix it. I hope someone could help me. i have a notebook nvidia q…

With Win10 my Dynamo "Background Preview" is blank

If your Win10 workstation contains a graphics card that used to work with Dynamo running Win7 or 8 and you experience an inability to render graphics you may wish to consult: https://github.com/helix-toolkit/helix-toolkit/issues/257#issuecomment-194145932 for a work-around. We are working to resolve this issue.

Hi Sunil,

I have faced the same issue with my AMD graphics processor.
The issue was resolved when I changed the default graphics for dynamo from High performance to Power saving graphics. The background preview is visible and workable.

Kindly refer to https://github.com/DynamoDS/Dynamo/issues/5818#issuecomment-261055495

I have faced the same issue with my AMD graphics processor.

This was the same problem I had recently! With mine, the AMD driver uninstalled itself and defaulted to Intel HD graphics.

I have Dell Inspiron r15, with i5-2410m 4gb ram

Above are the configuration of laptop and Nvidia setting, in sandbox I can see 3d background while in Revit I cannot see that.
Please tell me step by step as I am not tech savvy.
Appreciate your help

Hi Sunil,

Kindly change the ‘preferred graphics processor’ to Intel/Default Graphics and try starting Revit. I suggest to do this as it resolved the issue in my work laptop.

Revit doesn’t rely much upon the high-end graphic processor for Visuals compared to Rhinoceros which uses GPU acceleration for display.

Thanks it worked
