This maybe of use : https://forum.freecadweb.org/memberlist ... le&u=12184

Even if your graphics card isn't the same type, the driver for your particular card would be the area I would recommend investigating and it's not always the latest version that gives the best result. I recently had to back out a NVidia upgrade due a side effect that meant I had to DR my box from January.

The laptop I use has Intel integrated graphics, there has not been a recent upgrade the graphics driver.

This function works fine in the released v0.17 but no more in the v0.18 release candidate.

I'll will keep an eye to a newer or more stable 0.18 release to see if this bug changes.

There was another report that @GeneFC managed to find a driver to make Intel Graphics work with 0.18 https://forum.freecadweb.org/viewtopic. ... 0#p280582 and yes I'm not surprised that it's fine in 0.17 but fails in 0.18 RC.

Hi Syres

I downgraded fromo Intel(R) HD Graphics 520 Version: 21.20.0016.4821
to Version: 21.20.0016.4574

But no good luck. The same error is thrown.

Unhandled Base::Exception caught in GUIApplication::notify.
The error message is: Access violation


I would try to find other driver's version to see if pure driver error o also FreeCAD componentes.

Stay tune.

Today I downgraded to version: 21.20.0016.4354
From year 2016 I think I there's no older driver. There's the same error:

Unhandled Base::Exception caught in GUIApplication::notify.
The error message is: Access violation

So, What else can we do to iron out this bug??

Too much praise, but thank you.

@chrisb shall we add this to 'Known Issues' ?
Usually I wait until it happens a second time. In the other cases driver up- or downgrades helped. Should I place just a link in the drivers section?
