(Solved)CutControl not showing simulation during base plate milling

Yesterday while I was milling for the first time the base plate, I realized that in the simulation window I cannot see anything going on.

Is there a hidden setting somewhere to allow the simulation to show the Gcode being run?

Thanks

UPDATE: I just tested loading other gcodes, but none shows up in the visualization ( simulation) window above the g-code lines.

Not sure what is wrong with this. I also tried to reinstall CutControl and still the same issue.

I am using an all in one touch Lenovo PC. I played with the monitor resolution and none seem to make a difference.

WHAT IS GOING ON???

Graphics driver issue possibly? Maybe needs an update or your computer doesn’t have the power to handle it (seems unlikely though).

Thanks for that. Not sure about this though. The PC has an I3 processor and 4gb ram and integrated intel graphics. It is fully updated, but you raised a good point.

Maybe @langmuir-mike @langmuir-daniel or other can shine some light?

I’m pretty sure somebody else had the same issue, and they suggested it was a graphics driver, likely. I don’t remember seeing if they fixed it.

Thank you all. indeed was a driver issue. I had to go directly to the Lenovo webpage and run a system hardware update that found a new graphic driver. This fixed the issue in the visualization windows.
