Hi all.

Havn't used my LG for a little while, but since I've come back struggling with getting things to display correctly.

When I go to
"Looking Glass Bridge > Toggle Window" - a black window appears on my computer monitor and nothing on my looking glass (continues to display my OSX desktop).

When I try to use AliceLG in Blender and try to display the display there, it again sends a render window to my computer monitor.

Any ideas on how to fix?

Note - I have already updated AliceLG (2.1) and Looking Glass Bridge (2.09) to the latest versions.

Can you let me know which version of macOS you’re using and provide some more specs for the actual mac system?

hey @uneven totem . Monterey 12.5.1.
2017 Macbook Pro. 2.3ghz i5. 8Gb Ram.

It was all working fine before (maybe 4-6 weeks ago)

I opened that link in Chrome, dragged window to Looking Glass, and it seems to be displaying fine

#

You shouldn’t have to drag it to the Looking Glass?

Did it spawn a draggable window?

#

Can you share a quick video of what that did?

I've never used Blocks

Ah gotcha, it should open the block automatically in your looking glass once it loads the hologram

#

When I click that link, it simply opens a chrome window on my main monitor

uneven totem
#

Yup that’s correct, once the page is loaded it should send the hologram to your Looking Glass automatically.

In theory, it should behave the same way blender is behaving on your system

Ok Let me try that

#

Ok uninstalling Looking Glass Bridge and Installing Holoplay service has fixed everything

#

what does this mean for me moving forward?

#

We’ll try to reproduce the issue you reported here and try to resolve it for the next bridge release

#

ok Thanks Bryan. AND WOW, Blocks are amazing!!!

uneven totem
#

Everything should work fine for now, since bridge and service are currently at feature parity

Thanks so much for your help getting me back up and running
