Typically some examples and some images do not work if you are using the library locally (i.e. with "file://" URLs). Please click on the link below to check if the 3D-Torus appears.

If this does not work and you are accessing the library locally (i.e. with "file://" URLs) we very much recommend to install a local web server (e.g. the chrome extension "Web Server for Chrome") and then access the library with "http://".

For file URLs to work with a webkit browser, e.g. chrome, you need to set some options. This has some security implications, so make sure to read the documentaion of the option or better resort to a local web server.

In order to set the options you need to restart chrome with the options (it is not sufficient to just start a new Chrome window in parallel with an already running chrome). To apply the options it is easiest to copy the chrome desktop icon, then to open the context menu with the right mouse button, select "Properties" and then to append the options to the program name e.g.

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe" --allow-file-access-from-files

Note that the installation path of chrome might vary on your system.

You can also start chrome from a command window using these options, however starting from the "run" entry in the windows start menu might not work.
