[OpenFOAM] ParaView display window staying on top

ali.m.1 · October 14, 2013, 05:48

Hello. I'm using ubantu 12.04, openFOAM 2.2.1, and ParaView 3.12 on my mac through virtualbox.

The problem is: when I use paraview, the model display window stays on top of all other windows. This is annoying because I cannot see any other window below it properly.

Any ideas? I'm probably doing something silly...

I have encountered the same problem. Did you by chance find any solution for this problem?

Edit: turning off 3D acceleration in virtualbox solved the issue.
