Description

Hi,

Thank you for addressing an important challenge again! I currentlcy wants to run the app on the remote host uisng napari and visaluize on my local machine. I used X11 forwarding for that, but I got this warings when running command with image path defined.
WARNING: QOpenGLWidget: Failed to create context
11:23:30 : WARNING : MainThread : QOpenGLWidget: Failed to create context

I am currently trying to run the app using Napari plugin instruction on a remote host and visualize the results on my local machine. To achieve this, I’ve been using X11 forwarding. But when I run the command with a defined image path, I encounter the following warning:

WARNING: QOpenGLWidget: Failed to create context
11:23:30 : WARNING : MainThread : QOpenGLWidget: Failed to create context

And no image is visualized. Which I assume is the problem of running napari remotely. Is there any way to run the app on a remote host in that way?

Thank you in advance

Start with the Napari plugin instructions and reproduce the command with a defined image path over X11 forwarding. Investigate the reported QOpenGLWidget context warnings and confirm whether the image can be visualized on the local machine; document the working approach or the confirmed limitation.
