Hi,

I am new to paraview and am trying to apply contours to render a tiff stack in 3d. Whenever I apply the contour, this happens:

The controls are still in the normal position if I mouse over them, but I cannot figure out what is causing the issue. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling but no luck. Any idea what could cause this?

Thanks

Hi Zachary, welcome to the ParaView community!

This is the classic Intel driver bug. I bet you are on windows. The issue, and options, are explained at the bottom of [GUI Error on Viewing Dataset](https://discourse.paraview.org/t/gui-error-on-viewing-dataset/4377).
