Which browser or PC can I use to access the Pickit web interface?

The only supported internet browser for Pickit is Google Chrome.

Note also that the Pickit web interface requires WebGL to be able to show 3D visualizations. In case the 3D views don’t work out-of-the-box, check your GPU state by going to the following link: chrome://gpu. If it doesn’t read “WebGL: Hardware accelerated” in the first list, this confirms that the 3D views won’t work. To resolve this issue, you have to:

  • Make sure chrome://flags/#disable-webgl is disabled (there should be a link “Enable”)

  • If that does not help, try to additionally enable chrome://flags/#ignore-gpu-blacklist.

To confirm that this fixes the problem, go to the page https://get.webgl.org/ and make sure you see the spinning cube. If that’s not the case, use a different PC or laptop (with a preferably stronger graphics card) to access the web interface in order to see the 3D views.
