Summary0002511: The previewer of NoesisGUI XAML Tools (VSCode Extensions) always showing a blank blue background, it doesn't work properly on.
DescriptionAs I mentioned here:
https://www.noesisengine.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=2861&sid=cab69739d3b05d0e3b59629ef4897d34

I can't use the previewer to view XAML properly.
I also downloaded the sample files and the beta version of the extensions.
However, neither of them works.

I follow maherne's information to check the "/tmp/noesis" folder.
There are some png files but all of them are blank too (have file size but no content).
My device is MacBook Pro 2019 (Intel).
Steps To Reproduce1. Install the latest v0.0.33 or the beta version provided by maherne of NoesisGUI XAML Tools for VSCode.
2. Open the official Noesis samples and pick up the XAML file to open the previewer.
3. The previewer will only show the blank blue background.

It seems there is a problem rendering with the vscode extension, while we prepare an instrumented version to gather more information, could you please download the latest macOS C++ SDK (3.2 Beta) at

https://www.noesisengine.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=2822

And try to launch SDKBrowser and XamlPlayer to check if they render correctly on your machine?

Thank you

I checked the latest SDKBrowser & XamlPlayer both work:

I have created a test binary which, when run, will output a test render png and log to the same folder.

Could you please download this binary (link to the zip below), run it in the terminal, and then upload the output png and log here?

 Thanks for the results. Unfortunately, it doesn't report enough information. I am attaching a script that will enable Metal validation (enable_debug)

Please, could you:

1. Copy the attached script (enable_debug) to the folder where you have App.LangServerTool
2. Give execution permissions to the script (chmod +x enable_debug)
3. Execute the script (./enable_debug)
4. Execute our tool (./App.LangServerTool)
5. Please, send us the report again (lang-server-test.log)

 Here are the steps I did and the new log:

- add the env vars
❯ source ./enable_debug
- echo to check if the env vars have applied
❯ echo $DYLD_INSERT_LIBRARIES
/usr/lib/libMTLCapture.dylib:/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/Library/GPUToolsPlatform/libMTLToolsDiagnostics.dylib
❯ echo $METAL_DIAGNOSTICS_ENABLED
1
- run the tool
❯ ./App.LangServerTool
