Hi,
I start Sierra with no charts open. I wait for connection to be made then open appropriate chartbooks.
My regular chart book is not opening today. Tried others, same result.
Hence tried to open a new chart with no charts or chartbooks open and same is occuring.
Upgraded to the latest version of Sierra, for same result.
Then tried the same in Safe Mode.
Same result.

Please advise.

Thank you.

ok, Just a quick update.
I think I found the culprit.
The OpenGL for Chart Graphics, was enabled.
Once dis-engaged things started working again.
Thank you.

That is good. However, the cause may be something else. Refer to:
