Black screen

Hi, I have QCADCAM professional. When I start the application I get the splash screen (Low resolution) and then a black screen.

I am unable to use QCAD at all

System HP Zbook G7 NVIDIA with ubuntu 20.10

Kind regards

Johan

Please remove the file plugins/libqcadgles3d.so

It seems to be an incompatibility with the newer version of Qt this package uses and the OpenGL setup of some Linux distributions.

Alternatively, you can download and install the latest snapshot release 3.25.2.7 which also fixes the problem.
