Description

Hi phy team,

I was going to do the soring with phy on my ''klustaed'' spikes but found whenever I chose the clusters, all the ''view'' windows are blank (see attached picture). Therefore I reinstalled the whole environment and the problem still occurred. I am using a computer with AMD graphic card for this.
I also checked the phy.log, and found this error looping:
15:57:37.855 [D] base:702 Exception in paintGL: GLError(
err = 1282,
description = b'invalid operation',
baseOperation = glClearColor,
cArguments = (0, 0, 0, 10)
)
15:57:37.855 [D] base:675 Exception in initializetGL: GLError(
err = 1282,
description = b'invalid operation',
baseOperation = glClearColor,
cArguments = (0, 0, 0, 0)

Could you have a look and tell me what actions should be taken? Thanks!

Research direction

Start by reproducing the blank views on the reported AMD graphics setup and inspect phy.log for the repeated errors in paintGL and initializetGL. Trace the glClearColor failure from those entry points and verify that clusterview, waveforms, and other views render without recurring GLError messages.
