If freeview is expecting the X-server to provide fonts for text entry, then it could be the X-server on the Windows side does not have the fonts installed for text entry, etc. to work.    If you are using Xming for the X-Windows server, their web page has a section under “Xming-fonts” about how to download and install them.  It mentions the X-server side fonts were removed from the XMing installer because it makes the install footprint larger.

In a Linux shell in WSL2 you try running the “xterm” command and when it comes up, see if you can type/enter text in the xterm window.

An alternative would be to try a different X-server on the window host which I believe MobaXterm provides. My impression is MobaXterm is easier to setup compared to Xming.

If however freeview is using the fonts on the linux side for text entry, then something may not be right with the font setup in the WSL2 Linux VM.

What unix system are you running under WSL? I don’t have a WSL setup at this point but I can install one to test it.

Hello, 

I have a problem with the tool: Voxel editing. Using Freeview

When I open the window, it appears correctly but I can't modify it or enter values.

I'm using WSL 2 and I've followed the tutorial.

When I move my mouse over it, the cursor is transparent. 

 

Here an image to describe my problem : <pastedImage.png>

Thanks to reply,

Best regards,

Yoel
