Hello!

I realised that the P2D and P3D renderers don’t work on Big Sur, however some users suggested to add frameRate(XX) to make the Sketch run. Thanks a lot for that!

As an exported application it still crashes though. Did anyone find a solution for that?

Any ideas? float x,y,z; void setup() { size(200,200,P3D); x = width/2; y = height/2; z = 0; } void draw() { translate(x,y,z); rectMode(CENTER); rect(0,0,100,100); z++; // The rectangle moves forward as z increments. } Here is the error I get: 0 AppKit 0x00007fff22ccf47f -[NSWindow(NSWindow\_Theme) \_postWindowNeedsToResetDragMarginsUnlessPostingDisabled] + 352 1 AppKit …

I did read this but it doesn’t mention any ideas on how to solve this issue as an exported application.

Any news on the exported applications?  
I tried the new 4 beta, but no luck so far ☹

Unfortunately I couldn’t find a solution, was hoping it would be fixed with v4
