QR Code never appears #6

Open BrandyBuizel opened 3 years ago

Not sure if this is related to scene density, or number of vertices, but sometimes even simple scenes don't display a QR code when I start serving no matter how many times I try to restart blender or the file. I tried both v1.0.0 and v1.0.1

Hello @BrandyBuizel

That's strange, does it give any error when that happens? Assuming you've managed to connect at least once when the QR worked, your computer name should appear in the app, you can use it to connect again. Does it connect by tapping there after you Start Serving?

Connecting with the default cube scene to bookmark my laptop seems to work when the QR code won't appear and i connect that way. No issue in the debug console, but I'm glad this workaround exists and I can keep working!

Wish I had more info so you can keep looking, I recreated the issue with several scenes on both a windows and mac on 3 different wireless networks.

Ok, thanks! I will try to reproduce the issue. I don't want to waste any more of your time, but If you have a scene that you can send me where you are having this problem, I would be able to reproduce it faster. Maybe it's something specific to your scene setup. If you finally decide to share a scene and don't want to make it public, you can send it to support@virtucamera.com Thank you!

Hello @BrandyBuizel

Thank you for the scene! :)

I found what seems to be causing the problem. It looks like Blender doesn't correctly draw custom UI icons when the Render Engine is set to "Workbench", it consistently fails for me with all scenes using Workbench.

This is probably a Blender bug so I will report it and keep you updated if/when they fix it.

Cheers!
