I have installed all apps on my main windows 10 laptop and trying to use my chromebook to connect to the laptop to work remotely with the lite weight chromebook.

I have video and etc under teamviewer so I know that is all working as expected, but when I launch affinity publisher, I get the initial loading screen and then a blank white screen that I can't do anything with at all.  It won't render or anything useful so it seems like something is failing to load properly when using a remote display rather than the local display.

I am open to tinkering, let me know if you have any ideas on how to make this work on the remote machine.

Does the Publisher open properly on the Windows PC and does the UI appear there with all the elements, or is a blank area also displayed there?

I suspect that it is a display problem with the team viewer and not a problem with the publisher itself.

To test against this, I recommend starting AnyDesk on both devices.

Another possibility would be to activate the windows own remote desktop and the remote desktop client on the Chromebook.

Activate Remote Desktop:

Start --> Settings --> System --> Remote Desktop

MAC mini M4 | MacOS Sequoia 15.5 | 16 GB RAM | 256 GB SSD 
AMD Ryzen 7 5700X | Sapphire Nitro+ RX 9060 XT 16 GB  | 32 GB DDR4 3200MHz | Windows 11 Pro 24H2 (26100.4061)

Windows 11 Pro on VMWare Virtual Machine (on Mac)
Affinity Suite V 2.6.3 & Beta 2.6 (latest)

No backup, no pity.

I certainly do get full display on the local PC, I figured out how to finally get non-chrome based remote desktop to work which is preferred anyways as I can leave the laptop display closed when working remotely.
