Grey blank C4D view port on start up
Hi, every time I fire up C4D R19 the viewport is always like this:
Tried turning off OpenGL, it did help but I do want to keep that on for work.
What I usually do is to switch to any default layout like “Animate,” and then turn back to the ones I saved myself, which is quite annoying doing it on a daily basis.
Does anyone have any solution? Appreciate your help.

It looks like your Filter settings are set to “None.” Click on “Filter” in the View menu and select “All,” and that will bring back all of the options. You can then deselect the ones you want to disable.
After that, save the scene as new.c4d in Applications > Maxon > Cinema 4D R19 and it will save all of the settings. Here’s a tutorial which discusses this:

Thank you for your reply.
It seems that it isn’t the problem since I did turn all the settings in “filter.”

Well, I thought I would give it a shot. Could you save and upload a project file?

I thought that I might be able to find an errant setting, but here is what I get when I open that file. Are you still seeing a blank grey background?

thank you for your reply.
I still do, the viewport is still blank

it returns if you change to the Startup Layout?

I’m sorry, but I don’t have any other suggestions. Just out of curiosity, I uploaded a sample project below which looks like this on my system:
What do you see when you open it?

Thank you for your reply.
Yes. it goes something like this:
1) [saved user 1 layout as startup layout ]
startup = blank viewport >
switch to “Animate” = working viewport >
switch back to “user 1 layout” = working viewport2) [Animate as startup layout]
startup = blank viewport >
switch to any other layout = working viewportit seems that the no matter what the first layout is, the booting up viewport is got to be blank…

it looks like this:
(at my booting up layout)
switch to 2nd layout:
No worries, I appreciate your help 🙂
