Hi - I’m evaluating Ignition using the Maker edition 8.1 Perspective 2.1.42. When using the Designer and attempting to create a Perspective view, I always receive this error: View editor cannot be initialized due to browser library error. See logs for more details. I have some live tags and would like to link them to Any thoughts or ideas? Is this my default web browser, not allowing pop-ups, or something like that? Thanks, PeterF ---

Usually it's either AV/security software preventing the embedded Chromium browser from loading or trying to run on an unsupported platform/OS combination. There might be more in the Designer logs or in the stack trace of the error message. Also, FWIW, Maker Edition is not supposed to be used for evaluations - use the full version and reset the trial.
