    Hi I have two probems with openbuilds control:
    1.Webgl. It doesn't always upload- there are times it works fone, and times it does't upload at all? Why is that happening?
    2. Check size option isn't available after uploading gcode (see screens attached) It also doesn't switch to 3d view (when webgl doesn't work, in 3d view I see a sad face) It doesn't calculate carving time- I can anly pres play and star carving.

    2) depends on 1) - the Size Checker uses the 3D viewer to parse the gcode to determine the extents of the job, runtime etc. The 3D Viewer gives us all that information
    1) depends entirely on your computer having WebGL available (which usually can be fixed by updating drivers (chipset and gpu) or by updating OS, worst case, using a different GPU)
    Without working WebGL the 3D viewer cannot be started
