Hi.Every one,
I am a new user of the KiCAD software and my display card is the AMD Redeon W4300. I found the 3D viewer module of the current version KiCAD (v5.1.5) can not work on my computer. On the default display driver configuration, it just displayed the PCB with Pads and wire in the 3D viewer without the 3D component, like the above mentioned.

I think it's definitely the driver issue and the AIDA64 says that the display card can support the OpenGL v2.1 as the system requirements of the KiCAD software.So I decided to make a display card with more powerful options than the default display card configuration.

I tried many times and finally found a workable way as the attachment. And I think my experience could help about this issue. Please kindly note that my operation system is Microsoft Windows 10.

By the way, I am a Chinese user and my system language is Chinese. I found a funny thing that it just work when I change the display language of the <AMD Redeon Pro Setting> program to Chinese. I don't know why but I think when the language changes the program will be restart, and maybe the restart is the reason.
