### Wayland issues

For users on Wayland, you will need to make sure Gazebo is launched with
XWayland.

If you see an error message like the one below:
There's an issue with the interaction of Ogre and Qt in Gazebo that prevents wayland from
working properly. You might see an error message like the one below:

```
Unable to create the rendering window: OGRE EXCEPTION(3:RenderingAPIException): currentGLContext was specified with no current GL context in GLXWindow::create at ./RenderSystems/GL3Plus/src/windowing/GLX/OgreGLXWindow.cpp (line 165)
```

try unsetting the `WAYLAND_DISPLAY` environment variable, e.g.
A workaround is to set `QT_QPA_PLATFORM=xcb`. e.g.:

```
QT_QPA_PLATFORM=xcb gz sim -v 4 shapes.sdf
```

Another workaround to try is to make sure Gazebo is launched with
XWayland by unsetting the `WAYLAND_DISPLAY` environment variable, e.g.

```sh
env -u WAYLAND_DISPLAY gz sim -v 4 shapes.sdf
```
