Daljit, Try this simple hack.
Put in scene a qml item with an infinite animation like a bouncing rectangle. This will force the window to render. See if this makes any difference. If my theory is correct, simply moving the mouse on top of the window will also make the rendering happen more often. If any of this hacks work, it means that since there is nothing happening on the window and it is not being painted. You might need a custom animation driver instead of the qml animation hack as a proper solution: There is an interesting Qt blog post that makes use of a custom animation driver: https://www.qt.io/blog/2017/02/21/making-movies-qml <https://www.qt.io/blog/2017/02/21/making-movies-qml> Regards, Nuno > On 5 Jan 2022, at 02:04, Daljit Singh <dalji...@live.com> wrote: > > Hi, I'm using a third party library (Skia) to render custom opengl code in > sync with the QtQuick Scene Graph (Qt 5.15 on Windows 11). > I'm using the QQuickFramebufferObject and QSGRenderNode classes to create > custom QQuickItems to render my scene.
