Position indicator flickers #4

Closed peteruithoven closed 10 years ago

The position indicator flickers when the view is moved. Both in Firefox and Chrome. This didn't happen when the Tool head shadow was disabled, but since recently I can't disable the shadow anymore.

Please let me know if I can research / test / check further somehow.

I just tried toggling off the toolhead shadow and it worked. I too am seeing flickering of the toolhead when the shadow is on when I'm on an older computer, however, I do seem to be able to turn it off ok. I know I'm not storing the toolhead being on or off between reloads of the browser and I'd like to get a localstorage() setting in there, but for now are you sure you can't turn the shadows off?

I noticed yesterday that I suddenly coult turn it of when I was milling (sending gcode). Maybe I'll look into the code myself to see where it stops. I have a "old" 17" macbook pro with OS X 10.9 btw ;)

Firefox not accepting shadow shader seems to be the problem. The shadow is now off by default. I may bring the shadow back on later with a different approach. For now I think this is solved with shadow being off by default.
