Bug Reports / Black GUI when going into full screen mode (1.8.6.1457)

« on: 2019 February 03 15:11:01 »

I made a similar post last month and could not figure out why PI was opening to a black GUI. After reinstalling the latest version to give 1.8.6 a try again, I figured out what was causing the issue. My PI was opening in full screen by default for whatever reason. Now I have memorized the keyboard shortcut for fullscreen to counter this issue but I thought I would bring it to your attention.

As you can see in the linked video, when clicking Full Screen, the GUI goes black but I can still see tooltips. If you happen to come around a fix or trick for me to try, it would be much appreciated, as fullscreen mode is useful for my laptop.

Bug Reports / Re: TVGDenoise Corrupts Image

Something similar has happened to me before (using MMT) and the problem was that my computer was maxed out in RAM usage. I saved the working image and started a new project (thus using less RAM) and it performed quickly without error. This may not be your specific issue, but thought I'd share.

Bug Reports / Re: Black GUI after update to 1.8.6

Thanks for looking into it anyways. I did find one other thread of a Win7 user with similar issues, so likely OS related. I reverted back to 1.8.5 and PI is running smoothly again, I’ll have to wait on the new toys until I feel like upgrading my system.

Bug Reports / Black GUI after update to 1.8.6

« on: 2018 December 27 10:08:36 »

After updating to 1.8.6 I cannot use PixInsight. It opens to a black screen (screen shot attached). I am able to see tool tips appear as I move my mouse around. I have ran Windows Update and also updated my graphics driver to the most recent version. I have also reinstalled PixInsight several times, no luck.
