Display trouble with open foam

L1011 · March 17, 2011, 10:06

Dear all,

I've recently installed tecplot360 on a new linux 64bit desktop but I encounter display troubles when using it. More precisely, the background of the window is transparent (instead of the usual grey) and I can not see texts nor numbers (for example on legends or axis).

Does anybody already experienced something similar?

Thank you in advance!

In case somebody encounters the same issue, this is what you should do:

Install the latest (2010) version of tecplot
disable the display effects in the Linux's parameters

For future reference the Tecplot knowledge base has some additional details on this subject.

I searched on "display" under the "linux" category and got several hits:

Here are a couple:
