Any help, please?

It seems to be a compatibility issue between Rviz and QT. Please check the versions of them. If it cannot be solved, you can directly remove the 'pedsim_ros_with_gazebo/2ndparty/spencer_tracking_rviz_plugin' package. It only provides the pedestrian Rviz visulaization and does not affect the robot navigation and other things.

Thank you.
