Redrawing screen hide toolbars and then show them again

marce

Here is what happens. It is random, so i can say what is exactly the reason. It happens doing nothing too.

@marce I've seen the grid flickering, but have not seen the interface flickering like that.

@marce This looks problematic, not sure what could cause this.

Did this happen while holding the mouse and dragging in the color wheel?

Also: is the Windows display scaled in Windows Settings?

Hi. No scaling. I have been trying to found when it happens, but im unable. It just happens randomly. I deactivated the multiple monitors, i changed the performance from software to gpu, but it randomly continue doing this.
My setup is quite regular. Meanwhile writing here, VS made this issue. I was doing nothing with it, it was just open.
I see some other strange things related to the screen. One of them is that pointers contour looks pixelated as you can see in this screenshot:

@marce Did this occur in previous versions?

marce

@VectorStyler I dont remember to saw that behavior, i try to report inmediately when i see something..
Can an older version be installed along with the current to test or this is not possible?

VectorStyler

@marce You can install an older version but first you have to remove the current one.

Another thing to try: uninstall VS and remove all files from "Program Files \ NumericPath"
and let me know if after the Windows uninstall, something is left in that folder
on Windows the MSI installer can create problems when updating (by not updating some files)

@VectorStyler The uninstaller deleted the Numeric Path folder, nothing left behind.
I installed VS 1.2.078. That is the one i had in my downloads folder.
I started working on it. Long run, but after a while, it did something similar. Not so long as it happened in 1.3, but it did something similar. Menus drawing appear faster in 1.2 than in 1.3.
So far, i dont know what can be the issue. My Graphics Card is an Standard nVidia. The exact model is Geforce GTX 970 with 4gb or ram.
I dont have issues in the rest of the system with the display, i use several other programs for design, and appear related to VS. But im not able to root the cause. If i leave open 1.2 without doing nothing, it flickers as 1.3.

@marce I will try to find out what can cause this
