"TypeError: 'NoneType' object is not callable" when calling Renderer.render_text()
OS: Ubuntu 24.04 pyrender: 0.1.45 pyglet: 2.0.15 PyOpenGL: 3.1.0 trimesh: 4.3.2
When I try to turn rotation on by pressing 'a', I get the following error log:

That has nothing to do with the actual rotation, but calling render_text(...) on the renderer object causes this problem.
Since I use this function in my application to display various crucial information, I need some functional text rendering.
Although this problem seems to be related to the PyOpenGL library when loading texture for fonts, do you know if there's any workaround to show text until this bug is fixed in the library?
Hi! it seems that the issue is related to using python3.12. Most likely a change in ctype conversion. A similar error seems to have be found and reported here
I upgraded pyopenGL to it's latest version and I can render again with text.
pip install -U PyOpenGL
pyrender might complain about a mismatch version, but at the moment everything is running without any issues.
That did not work for me.
pyrender does now crash in the Viewer's _render() method:

I don't know if this is really related to the version mismatch, but I didn't had that error before.
For the moment, I found a workaround which is at least acceptable.
In the Renderer, I replaced the content of render_text(...) with
# # workaround for bug in PyOpenGL
try:
# original content of render_text(...)
except ctypes.ArgumentError:
label = pyglet.text.Label(text, font_name=font_name, font_size=font_pt, anchor_x=ANCHORS_X[align],
x=x, y=y, color=[int(c*255) for c in color], anchor_y=ANCHORS_Y[align])
label.draw()
using the global arrays
ANCHORS_X = ['center', 'left', 'right',
'left', 'right', 'center',
'left', 'right', 'center']
ANCHORS_Y = ['center', 'center', 'center',
'bottom', 'bottom', 'bottom',
'top', 'top', 'top']
At least, it works and the text is displayed again, although I know there are some drawbacks:
- positioning is not as exact as before but still roughly in place
- resizing the window results in stretched/squeezed font and failures in positioning
- objects in the scene possibly hide the text since they seem to be drawn on a higher layer
Hence, this is not a solution but at least a workaround until the underlying problem is fixed.

This fixed my problem. I downgraded from Python 3.12 to Python 3.11.5 and it worked
