Windows computers that have an integrated GPU and a discrete GPU were having a problem with the desktop app not displaying the contents of a Rive file in the editor because Flutter was defaulting to a different GPU than the one selected by the Rive Renderer. This has been resolved by having the Rive Renderer select the same GPU as Flutter.
