rviz crashing almost immediately #16

Closed MrDadaGuy closed 5 years ago

MrDadaGuy commented 5 years ago

Ubuntu 18.04, ROS Melodic... First, thanks for putting this project out there, it's really fantastic!

When I start it up, it usually loads into rviz fine, but when I start moving the model (setting a Goal State), rviz crashes almost immediately. Sometimes just when I click, sometimes when i'm moving the ball. A couple of times it's been stable enough for me to create a goal pose and Plan & Execute a path. But usually rviz crashes very quickly.

When I run a different model such as UR5, rviz is very stable and I've not experienced a crash despite a lot of use. Any ideas, or suggestion on what I might try?

Thanks,

Hi,

You may want to try ROS Kinetic on Ubuntu 16.04 :)

Closing because I've rebooted since then and things seem ok now :)
