Maya 2018 Hypershade shader ball not showing

[Anonymous]

Hi, ive been having problems with Maya 2018's Hypershade. Whenever i attempt to open it, the shader balls show up for a split second then disappear. Then the only thing that shows up is text saying "Press Tab to create a node." With this always showing up i am unable to creat renders and animations with the correct shading and coloring and what not. Please help me out!

Hi @Anonymous and welcome to the community!

What GPU are you using and are the drivers the same as our certified hardware list?

You can find our certified hardware list here!

If that doesn't help, you may want to try deleting your settings/preferences.

Please let me know if anything changes!
