## Torfinn Ingolfsen (tingox@gmail.com): > Just checking: is anyone using FreeCAD 0.17 (cad/freecad) under FreeBSD at all? I'm not a heavy CAD user, but FreeCAD as such is working. > I installed it from ports, I'm running > tingo@kg-core1$ uname -a > FreeBSD kg-core1.kg4.no 11.2-STABLE FreeBSD 11.2-STABLE #0 r342545: I'm on 12.0-STABLE, but that shouldn't matter that much. > but the windows in FreeCAD have graphics corruption all over them, > making it very hard to use. My first idea would be "something in your graphics/X11 stack". I've got a nvidia card and I'm using x11/nvidia-driver (without any special options and tricks, as far as I'm aware - not enough time to follow all the new developments), which "just works": that is web browsers, video playback and FreeCAD do not have any glitches (at least I don't see any...). Anyways, FreeCAD is still using Qt4, which is rather old... I'm working on moving it to Qt5, to avoid deprecation in 6 weeks. It's not 100% complete yet, but at least the widgets are looking much nicer now :) Expect an update "soonish". Regards, Christoph -- Spare Space
