[OpenFOAM] ParaView only Showing OpenFOAM Case in Bottom Corner of Screen

Last123 · November 6, 2023, 22:18

Hello,

I am having trouble viewing my OpenFOAM case in ParaView. The case is only showing in a small window in the bottom left of the screen (image attached). I can zoom and interact as normal, but it is as if the view window is not properly alligned with the screen. I have to restart paraview 6-7 times before the case shows properly in the middle of the screen.

Does anyone know a fix for this? I've tried uninstalling and using previous versions of paraView but had no luck.

Thank you!

I have the same problem in Paraview 5.10.0-RC1, did you ever find a way around it? https://gitlab.kitware.com/paraview/...-/issues/22567 Not sure, but apparently it might have to do with WSL is not being officially supported by Paraview??

If you use WSL, you can just install PV on Windows natively and postprocess your results there.
