Description Matt 2016-07-14 07:14:31 UTC

So every time I load up Krita 3.0 and I try drawing with it, I can't see what I'm doing; it's like having a blind fold on. The only place I can see Krita update my progress is the tiny little thumbnail on the layer docker, or if I press the file tab, my work suddenly appears. I heard this happened to another individual on OS and it's very frustrating. I've tried everything to fix it, but I've givin up. I was excited to try the new animation feature, but it looks like I'll be reverting to 2.9.11 for now. Please fix this if you can.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Load Krita
2. Try Drawing with it
3. There you go...

Actual Results:  
Same thing

Expected Results:  
Nothing, it did it again

Wacom intuos pen and touch tablet, uninstalled and re-downloaded Krita 3 times, tried configuring Wacom desktop center to set Krita as default program and it didn't change a thing.

Obviously, this is not normal, because otherwise we wouldn't have released Krita 3.0. You are not giving enough information to see what might be wrong, not even a screenshot, but at a guess, it's a graphics driver problem, and if you disable opengl and you see your image, that's a virtual certainty.

* Which operating system are you on? You have selected both PC Linux OS and MS Windows.
* Which graphics card do you have? Intel, AMD or NVidia? Or one of those two-cards-in-one box laptops which are switchable? If so, how is krita configured?
* Which version of the driver for the graphcs card do you have?
* What do you mean "file tab" -- that's not a term that's familiar to me.
