    I’m running a very simple QML example, qtcreator’s design view just displays mostly black background, with no actual components visible.
    Running Qt Creator 12.0.2 based on Qt 6.6.0, on ubuntu 22.04.3.

    main.qml:

    import QtQuick 2.15
    import QtQuick.Controls 2.15
    import QtQuick.Window 2.15
    
    Window {
        width: 640
        height: 480
        visible: true
        title: qsTr("Hello World")
    
        MenuBar {
            id: menuBar
                Menu {
                    title: qsTr("&File")
                    Action { text: qsTr("&New...") }
                    Action { text: qsTr("&Open...") }
                    Action { text: qsTr("&Save") }
                    Action { text: qsTr("Save &As...") }
                    MenuSeparator { }
                    Action { text: qsTr("&Quit") }
                }
        }
    
        RadioButton {
            id: radioButton
            x: 200
            y: 149
            text: qsTr("Radio Button")
        }
    }
    

    Pressing qtcreator 'Run' arrow button displays what I expectScreenshot from 2024-06-20 08-41-28.png
    However pressing the Design button when main.qml is open shows mostly black where I expect my component layout to be displayed. I looked at qtcreator Edit->Preferences, didn't see any obvious settings that made a difference. What am I doing wrong? Screenshot from 2024-06-20 08-42-07.png
    Thanks!

      Which Qt Creator version is it? Have you used official Qt installer to install it?
