Unable to visualize tutorial urdf robots in rviz
I'm in /opt/ros/lunar/share/urdf_tutorial and when i run:
roslaunch urdf_tutorial display.launch model:=urdf/05-visual.urdf
only TF and gripper elements are visible: https://i.imgur.com/a/8OQqz.gif
For all other tutorial robots only TF is visible. I tried setting LIBGL_ALWAYS_SOFTWARE=1 but it didnt help.
All rviz, launch, urdf files are unmodified lunar versions.
If you have any ideas why is this happening please let me know, thanks!

It's not horribly helpful, but I ran this myself on Lunar and saw all of the elements. Is this a Lunar only problem? What OS are you running?

Hi, thanks for reply. Im on Ubuntu 17.04 zesty and it's kinda hard to check this under other ros versions because
lunaris the only one avaible for zesty.Asked by surob on 2017-05-21 12:59:26 UTC
I ran it in a virtualbox instance of 17.04/lunar and it worked. Make sure you are running the latest version of Rviz and try again? This seems like an rviz problem more than a urdf_tutorial problem.

This could be caused by locale settings. See ros-visualization/rviz#1151.
