Color Map Editor GUI broken

Hello everyone,

I’m experiencing some issues with ParaView. Both my Color Map Editor and LineChartView are no longer functioning. I’ve tried reinstalling ParaView, but the problem persists. It used to work perfectly fine, and I can’t recall making any specific changes that might have caused this issue.

Does anyone have any suggestions on what could be causing this problem or how I might fix it?

Thanks in advance for your help!

OS: Ubuntu 22.04.4 LTS
Paraview Version: 5.10.0-RC1


5.10 is quite old version now.

Please try a more recent version from the download page: https://www.paraview.org/download/
5.12 is the last stable, 5.13 is in the release stage (RC)

Thank you for your reply!
I uninstalled my current installation and installed ParaView 5.12.1 following the guide from this link.

Weirdly enough, the problem persists, as shown in the following screenshot:

Below is the log file from my build process. I encountered some warnings, but I’m not sure if they are relevant to this issue:
log.paraview_build (229.7 KB)

Can you try with the binary release from https://paraview.org/download ?

The fact that you see strange graphics in both the LineChartView and Color Map Editor suggests to me that there is possibly a graphics driver issue at play, especially since you said it used to work. An update may have started this behavior. What is reported as your OpenGL graphics in Help → About?

Thank you for your suggestion. I tried it with the binary release 15.13.0, but still the problem persists.

Under Help → About it states:

OpenGL Vendor: Mesa
OpenGL Version: 4.3 (Core Profile) Mesa 23.2.1-1ubuntu3.1~22.04.2
OpenGL Renderer: NV134

EDIT:
Reinstalling my drivers using ‘sudo ubuntu-drivers install’ resolved the issue.

Thank you for your help!
