UPDATE FROM MABULA
I have had a very rough 2 months unfortunately health wise. I was struck 3x in a row with bacterial infections. The second infection occurred  after a routine hospital checkup and I became very sick. I had to rest and take a lot of antibiotics. Once I was recovering and restarting work 1 month ago, I again became sick. The infection was not yet gone, so even more antibiotics and rest was needed. Needless to say, it took a lot of my energy and I needed a lot of rest.
Finally, the infection is really gone and my energy is coming back step-by-step now and I have started work again. I am terribly sorry to have kept you waiting for support. I will address all outstanding questions and e-mails step-by step and will be on the forum daily from today.
APP 2.0.0-beta47 will come soon as well, a lot of work was already completed before I became very ill, so the release is also nearly ready for you. Beta47 will be much faster actually. Many workflows will be more than 2x faster, mosaics can even be 10x faster than before because registration really received a major boost... all compared to beta46. Â Before I release it, I will make sure that everything is working properly and then I will release it.
Hello, I just downloaded the APP free trial version last night. I've tried at least 5 different times now but I keep getting the same result. When I load some Canon CR2 raw astro images into the bottom of the screen, they show up there. When I click on to one of them, it's supposed to show up in the screen. I can see the loading bar go across the top of the screen and the image title shows up at the top of the screen. Even the histogram to the right pops up with the image information. But the problem is the screen turns pure white.
Does anyone know what I am doing wrong?
I've been following this YouTube tutorial which is pretty good dispite it being a couple of years old. But when she clicks on her image at the bottom, the image pops right up on the screen like it's supposed to:Â
When I do the same, all I get is a white screen. Any suggestions would be appreciated. I would love to try APP but I'm not even getting beyond the first few steps. Thanks, CharlesÂ

I was able to get help on Cloudy Nights where it was suggested to click on the GL3 button at the top.
It worked! That button was not mentioned in any YouTube tutorial I had watched.
Dear Charles @fm3aar,
I am glad that you have found a solution to the issue. APP 1.075 does have a bug in the OpenGL3 implementation. By clicking on the GL3 button, you are disabling OpenGL and thus are able to see the image using a software cpu renderer.
The next release, APP 1.076 should have this fixed though ;-). It will be released soon. You should be able to use OpenGL in the next release and image rendering on your screen should be much faster then.
Kind regards,
Mabula
Mabula, thanks. Charles
