After the latest update the toolbar is completely black now.

It was working before the update.

The buttons are still there and functional but just can not be seen!

 

Tried: Updated graphic driver to the latest.

Tried: Set graphics driver in fusion to DX11 DX9 Opengl

 

It is serious. I can almost do nothing now!

Please help!

Hello @spike.moa ,

 

Sorry for the trouble you are facing.

 

Can you try the below workaround?

One potential workaround is to force Fusion 360 to use software rendering by setting a system Environment Variable.

 

  1. Right-click on My Computer/This PC on the Desktop or in the Start Menu and select “Properties”
  2. In the left column of the System window that appears, select “Advanced System Settings”
  3. Within the System Properties window that appears, click “Environment Variables” in the bottom right
  4. Within Environment Variables, click “New…” under the System Variables section
  5. For Variable Name, enter QT_OPENGL
  6. For Variable Value, enter software
  7. Click OK to save the new variable
  8. Launch Fusion 360

 

Restart your PC and try to launch fusion 360

If you still see the same issue, then

 

Please Remove/edit below Environment Variables

  • Variable Name: QT_OPENGL
  • Variable Value: software

And add below Environment Variables.

  • Variable Name: QT_OPENGL
  • Variable Value: angle

Let me know if this helps
