Additive Print: How to deal with the error “WebGL is not available for your system”?

    • FAQFAQ

      The 3D geometry rendering inside Additive Print is driven by WebGL technology. The majority of systems will have a GPU and will have full support for WebGL. If WebGL is not supported by your system, instead of seeing the 3D rendering there will be a message confirming “WebGL is not available for your system.” This could mean that your system either has a GPU on the WebGL blacklist or your system does not have a dedicated GPU. For either of these cases, software acceleration for WebGL may be possible. You can try to run the Additive application with the following flag to try and enable software acceleration: –ignore-gpu-blacklist. To do so, right click on the Additive Print short-cut, select Properties, then add –ignore-gpu-blacklist to the Target field.
